Servus once again… After spending some time searching through the forum and not finding a satisfactory answer, a question about the frequently addressed glow candles: I have a Chevrolet K30 6,2l ex-army with original pre-glow system and would NOT like to convert it to manually!…. This one, the colder it became, was always shclechter start, until he did not want at all. (With start pilot still in case of emergency) It is certainly due to the glow candles. .. So I checked this time and found out the following: I have on all supply lines to the candles 6V when glowing. The voltage is switched on during pre-glowing always kuez, falls off and comes back again. One hears the realais again and again click. I don’t know if this is normal, at least the shocks are charged and that with 6V. Shouldn’t that be 12V over a certain period of time? Now I got new candles here at a dealer: – according to my vehicle verka If he took me from ACDelco 8#60G candles. Since my “specialist screwdriver” has his workshop on his way home, I stopped there to borrow a long, suitable nut to pull the candles. He then immediately said that these are the wrong candles. They are for the civilian version and not for mine. They would break directly again. That would be seen at the too wide plug connector…… So, now my question: –> Which candles do I really need and what can I do with this? Thank you….. Oh, I’m creating a page on which I document my stuff here for myself and posterity. I’ve already installed a banner from the forum. Below is the link…
