I last fueled up in North Carolina, at a BP, using highway grade diesel. It was a truck stop, and the fuel pump was too big to fit into my intake.

Whenever I put the key in, the glow plug light does not come on. Its very hot here, so I assumed the glow pugs must be good? So then I turn the key the rest of the way with the clutch in, and the engine sounds like it wants to start, but it just keeps turning.

When I say the alternator is new, I mean it was installed last Monday, and has less than 1000 miles on it.

Whenever I originally checked the dip stick before adding new oil, there was none on the tip.
