Success!!!!! so I went out and tested for power to the glow plugs...after finally located them:laughing:, found I had power to them,so disconnected the power supply and metal strip from the first 2 glow plugs, #1 test 0 ohms, #2 & 3 both wer.7ohms so thanfully it was #1 as it is the easiest to get at.

Removed the glow plug which I found had major black fouling on the tip since it wasn't working. Took it in to the local NAPA but they were unable to match it up so had to go to the Bobcat dealer as I have no Kioti dealer nearby. Picked up a #6696044 Bobcat plug (numbers were exact as original kioti) ...was a little shock at the $39 price tag!

So just got it done and test fired it with one cyle of the plugs and she fired off on ALL cylinders!!! YES!!!!

Thanks for all your help gang!!!!!!!!

All fixed and it should be much nicer to start when cold. Depending on the hours, a $39 fix seems pretty cheap.

You got more for the $39 than you realize. Now you are a TBN glow plug expert:thumbsup: Mechanics had to pay to go to school to learn how to test them. :laughing::laughing:
