Hey Folks,
Trying to make sure my glow plugs are working OK. Have a Kubota L200DT w/ 3 Glow Pugs. Removed and measured the resistance. Each was about 2 ohms. This translates into a power draw of 6 AMPS, and 72Watts each.
Of course if the ciruit resistance is in parallel, the power calculations go up to 20A total draw and 240 Watts.
Do these numbers make sense? I could not find the indivual specs for the glow plugs on the internet.
Tx,
Bob
