I couldnt see the power steering hoses any place.
You need a good strong relay for the glow, it is best set up through a push button that you hold in until it starts. You dont leave the GP's on once it starts.
You need a vac switch to turn off the motor. it is normally part of the ignition switch. It needs to turn off the vac to the IP stop when the ignition is turned on and turn the vac on when the ignition is turned off. You may be able to find a suitable elec/vac switch controller off the pollution control of something. it needs to be normally open, power to close & vent the outlet. The alternate would be to rig up a kill knob with a cable, attached to the shut off leaver on the IP.

forgive my ignorance, which idiot light?
the P/S hoses are the nearly the same size as the 2.3 hoses and the fittings look spot-on. not that I even need Power Steering in this thing, still. may as well install it.
I am familiar (vaguely as it may be) with glow relays from my 2.5 Turbo but a dash button would be just as good for someone like me who doesnt mind hassle when driving an old diesel.
can that be a small cable wired to a small arm on the IP? if so, I know which thing you are referring to. if not, I'll have to look for a vacuum connector on the IP
since I am unfamiliar with all that fancy electric vacuum stuff, I'll just have to cable up a kill knob
thanks again for the help guys!
