glow pluging with a battery and wires?
 

my OM616 if out of my /8 awaiting install in my 88 190E and I am curious, how do you glowplug the motor with just wires and a battery?

once thats good, how do I start it with just wires and a battery?

just push stop on the injection pump when I want it off, right?

thanks much!

Ground block to battery. 12 volts to end plug on loop style, 12 volts to all if pencil plugs. 12 volts to starter, jump solenoid to 12 volts. Make sure engine is strapped down.

Try not to run it too long
 

Without coolant.
(Also consider you have no engine Temp Gauge.)

they are loop plugs, is the wire the braided bit coming off the end?

I won't be running it long until I get the mounts, prop shaft, cooling system and glow relay installed.
