My father had a 4230 that wouldn't start. Instead of taking the "easy quick" solution. I tore into the electrical system and found the voltage drops. How about solving the problem instead of treating the symptoms? The engine wailed right over and would start at 32F without ether or being plugged in. With 10.9V at the starter. Previously with barely 8V at the starter, the engine would barely fire at 50-60F. Try as we might the only way to get a chassis return path to the starter was with a cable. Couldn't make the circuit through the castings. Put the 5KW Denso or the new Delco Remy 44MT starter on there. New diesel cables and bateries instead of walmart components. And throw the ether away. Have you ever seen and heard tell of a block heater for winter starting? About 1/4 of the people here are absolutly startled at the concept of pre-heating the engine with electricity.
