Here is how you glow an old "cat"

They did have a glow procedure Juan, but not with glow plugs. Glowing meant you fired up the gas pony engine and glowed that exhaust into the intake manifold. Then when they were running good, the pony that is, you pulled the choke back on it and pull in a batch of raw gasoline, another aid too starting those old beasts on a cold, cold morning.
