My motor, a stock 3.3, has taken to ruining glowplugs very quickly. Just today, I put a new 3232x plug in and it started and ran through one tank and half of another then I stopped for about 15 minutes and when I went to start back up the glowplug is dead. This has been happening to me for the last several bash sessions though not as quickly.
I initially thought I was too lean with the LSN and/or the HSN and maybe I was letting it get to hot (don't have a temp gauge) and made adjustments accordingly. Hasn't seemed to help.
Another issue is that my motor is worn and is down on power. This is my first truck so I am not used to these things. I didn't think that this would kill plugs, but I am thinking now that this must be the problem. I've just bought a new piston/sleeve/rod off Ebay so I can get back up to speed while I resize the worn out one.
Is my worn out motor the problem like I'm thinking or am I off the track?
