Default Should Have Plugged In
Well it started, but not wanting to very bad. I didn't have it plugged in and it got down to -26. Shouldn't have done to much damage. Glad Cummins don't run glow plugs.

Had to do it three times, when it started the grids stayed on for 30 sec. Thought she was going to blow up.

You guys need to come up here for at least one winter. Help with the polar bear instinct.
