Retro Fitting 200Tdi in place of V8

Recommended Posts

Hi there. I have an 89 rangie which originally had a 3.5v8 in it. It now has a 200Tdi in it, which is great!

Thing is, when I got it, pretty much everything worked with the exception of the heater plugs.

I would like these to work and have bought a genuine Lucas red glow plug timer relay.

My question is, how do I wire this up?

I need to wire the plugs up themselves firstly (they are fitted and linked together with loops of wire)

Then I need to wire the relay up to the plugs

and finally, I need the relay connected to the ignition live and the output of it (which I presume goes to the plugs) to also illuminate the choke lamp in the binnacle

Hence, hey presto, I will have a retro fitted glowplug heating system

So how do I do it and what are the pins on the relay timer?

Yay!!
