I did this on one truck that I have and it worked perfectly.
However, I too am electrically illiterate, and tried to do this on another truck (same year i might add...83 BJ60 with superglow) and no matter what I do, I blow the fuse. I have it wired so that I can glow the plugs with the ignition off, but as soon as I press the button, the fuse blows. I have installed brand new plugs, I don't see any current with the keys off so something is bad here. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what might be going on and what I should check for?
Right now i am having to hold a wire to the positive post of the battery and to the glow bar to get the truck started. Not ideal when its freezing outside.
I'm lost.
Thanks
Adam
