Hey all, I have finally bought my 7.3 power stoke glow plugs, I dyed/rethreaded the glow plugs so they fit, and i got all 6 glow plugs in the tractor. All I did for wiring was I bent the old slab connectors into a round hole, and they fit right onto the new 7.3 glow plugs. My electrical setup is all brand new straight 8 gage wire coming from the 12 volt batteries right up to a heavy duty push button switch, then 8 gage wire all the way to the glow plug junction. I have each wire to the glow plug wired separately up to the junction, so they each all have even distribution of power. My main question here is how long should i have my finger on the glow plug button switch before I would chance burning them up?
I bought the glow plugs at auto zone. not online.
anyways, my question is how long do all the sensors and relays activate the plugs for in a normal ford truck? since i don't have all those relays and stuff, I AM the relay, if you know what i mean. if the plugs are only activated for 15 seconds, or even less, thats perfectly okay, I will just let the block heater run for 4 hours instead of 2 hours, if you know where I'm coming from. thanks guys for any help. Note: i am working in 18 to 34 degree Fahrenheit weather. Here is the link to the exact glow plugs

Today's Featured Article - Recollections of a John Deere GP - by Charlie Cook. I grew up on my dad's 280 acre general farm in Western Michigan. Dad's only tractor when I was very young was the old GP. My first recollection of this tractor was when dad allowed my brother and myself to ride on the tractor with him driving. One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
