By the time they got around to making the 706 , IH had that engine starting pretty well. Lot of changes were made. First off, it may be worn out and never start decent but we will over look that possibility for now. The glow plugs take about 20 seconds to get good and red hot, then it takes time to warm things in precup. Hold them down for one minute, KEEP HOLDING THEM DOWN WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO START IT and keep holding them down after it starts. Cold fuel hitting them cools them off real fast. If it is running clean let them go. Have throttle open quite a ways when cranking and slow it down as soon as it fires up. If it cranks good and fast it should start right up then. To actually get a good check on the glow plugs, just pull one out, hook it back up, leave all other hooked up also. Ground that glow plug and push meter button, should get red hot in like I said 20 seconds. Meter should normally just pop over to full on, no delay. Some may be dampened but it is not in anyway going to effect performance. I see so many that do not know how to start them. More than once I have walked over to a tractor where someone had it half way started, blowing smoke all over. I just shut it off, hold the darn glow plugs and start it right. If this does not work for you then you need some repairs to engine, or pump or electrical system.

Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!!
