Reviving an old thread to see if anyone who's tried it has some long-ish term feedback. I'm in bridge construction and have access to Zinga, not any cheaper, but easy access. I'm respraying my fj40 tub pretty quick before the rust gets any deeper and seriously considering using Zinga after a...

Adding a little bump to hopefully keep this thread going for more details. Can't believe I stumbled upon this when I did. Just pulled out my 40 after 2 years.. SBC with pro flo4 fuel injection and a spaghetti mess of a wiring harness I gotta deal with, this would work awesome with the Edelbrock...

Ohhhh I gotcha, yeah they're in the left foot well. I popped open both of my timers and with my 0 electrical skills they looked clean to me. I'm definitely going to give him a shout. His site does offer 12 and 24v timers with a 3 in 1 upgrade which probably refers to what you were saying with...

You're right, technically a solenoid, but I think a fair few have used these in replacement of the factory primary relay, superglow or wilson. It will still shut off as long as the timer works and I have two functional timers. Reason I suspect the main glow relay is because I'm picking up 5V off...

So finally got the new relay, does anyone know which post is what and which factory wire is which? Tried finding any diagram for the relay but couldn't find anything. The little factory wires are black and black/blue stripe I believe

One day I'll be going wilson switch, but for now I'm hoping to keep the superglow

I would be interested if shipping was an option. I'm in British Columbia and been having a hard time finding one.

Still available?

Interesting... does this replace the whole superglow system? Bypasses the timer and relays?

Okay found the issue, voltage is coming through the primary relay. Picked up the volts off the power stud with the black and blue stripe wire on the left side of the relay. So probably going to order a NAPA GPR109 relay and try to wire that up and see if that solves it. If that fails - wilson...

LOL I never heard of that trick until finding this thread. I am sitting on the fence with the wilson switch. Logically, makes sense, too much sense actually, as opposed to making a 39 year old piece of technology keep working. I do feel a little committed picking up the new relay and a back up...

Thread revival - I have an '84 BJ60 and I'm also dealing with constant voltage at the busbar. Just replaced the secondary relaying thinking it was the culprit as I get a constant 5V but that didn't solve it, but reading this thread has got me thinking its been the main all along. Have you had...

A bit late, but finally got the relay from Toyota Direct. I tried getting both but they no longer supply the main relay, but that can be swapped out with a generic NAPA relay down the road. Anyway, just put the new relay in and tested the glow cycle with the vehicle off, everything worked and...

So I replaced the plugs when I first bought the vehicles as they were indeed the wrong voltage (10.5V) and I still had hard start issues. Eventually found it was a glow switch that wasn't sending power to the glow plugs and I was cold starting with zero glow in the frigid -20's and -30's, killed...

I am using a digital multimeter. That is a good point, using a few more methods to confirm is a good idea, although I am pretty confident the multimeter is accurate. When I picked up my second hand timer I put the multi on to track the voltage and it did read 0 volts once the afterglow shut off...
