Default 03 grid heater/glow plug bypass
Is there a way to bypass these with a lead from the batteries for a start?

Just in case they ever go out on a cold day. I'm usually out in the middle of nowhere for work.

You have a grid heater, it's quite unlikely to experience a failure of that system with correct battery maintenance.

Just disconnect the power from the soleniod. I've had an occassional CEL but if you start it right away usually doesn't come on! Never gets cold in CA so I removed the whole assy ran a heater delete. I've been down to 30 and starts right up!

If your trying to start without grids it's easiest to just remove the slide on signal wire off the solenoid.

There really isnt any gain by removing the GH. You might gain .5 psi, but at high revs. Its there for a purpose.

I'm guilty of it more times than you could imagine. I'd say 80% of my post are completely irrelevant
