I know I have a problem, I just need some help understanding what I need to do it fix it.
I have a little Kubota D600-B engine. When the the glow plugs are on they short out the battery, the amp meter pegs to the discharge side. This is a big problem since when the key is in the start position it's not only running the starter it's also running the plugs.
I used my multi-meter to confirm that there is zero resistance between the where the lead connects and ground (on all three plugs, all disconnected).
So, I get a dead short, that's not right. These plugs were all replaced when I rebuilt the engine last year. Could be be three bad plugs or is there something else going on?
Thanks,
K
