Looking at buying a HJ60
The truck is in Excellent condition but the Glow Plugs are a bit lazy in the morning. You need to glow it two or three time but then it cranks over no dramas.
Whats it cost roughly to get a new set put in?

careful here
could also be low compression causing it to not start properly when cold etc.
can cause the same symptoms as dead glow plugs but one costs a few grand to fix, the other about $100

also don't go buy the glow light on older rigs wait till you hear a loud click from under the bonnet then start
but get a compression test done first as shadow's said it may7 be low comp
