thanks man!! that there is good info!!!
i planned on getting the Auto Enginuity scanner from PHP shich, from what I understand will perform a glow plug continuity test, injector buzz test and a slew of other diags as well as live logging and monitoring....so. I'm assuming this will do the trick. -also, obviously, this will let me check for latched codes to see if anything is stored without the SES light showing
the last time i was heading for the valve covers, i couldn't, for the life of me, unplug that connector....so, yea, the connections could be a little grungy. -or i'm just an idiot (which is more often than not, the problem).
thank you for the info and i may just dig into it again and see if I can get that harness plug separated and do some probing.
i'll post any results to help any others who may have a rompy rig.
thanks!!!
