Eric,

No wonder you are having trouble, trying to start your engine with an "ignition key". Do you wind it up or what? You should try to start it by using the starter motor. LOL

Ok enough joking.

The dash light may not be any indication of how long the GP are actually energized. I suggest you time how long the GP are actually turned on by the GP relay. An easy way to do this is to observe the cabin light. It will dim noticeably when the GP are energized. The GP should turn on for about 40 seconds each time or until the starter is energized. If the GP are only on for a short time, the relay might be bad and that may be why you are having starting problems.

Pre-glow of 20 seconds should be sufficient at 60F.
