[QUOTE="JohnT24, post: 1464837, member: 11219"] Just replaced my GPR for maybe the third time since I've owned the truck new in 95... This time the hot wire post was getting smoking hot.... replaced it and all is fine again.. But, I never liked the way the GPR stays ON for so long after the truck starts.... just watch the battery gauge.. So tell me if I'm nuts, Heres my idea... I run a battery shut off switch through the firewall to the dash where I can reach it conveniently. cables go to the relay/battery wire. start the truck: switch ON relay power turn key/wait to start start truck turn off switch. OR, switch ON power wait to start... turn off power so starter gets full power... start truck. either way, when the truck starts, you kill the power to the relay... possibly saving the GPR and the glow plugs un needed use. If you happen to leave the switch on, no problem... the truck justs acts like it normally would. Do you see any flaws in my thinking here? [/QUOTE]
