That and your one way bearing. Imagine only putting a igniter in your pocket and a fuel bottle in your hand No more cheezy start wand, no more weight on the truck and your belt, lower temps, cleaner looking truck ETC, ETC....

yea i have a brand new owb in my parts box. or i can just pull the one out that im using now and clean it up good. plus no more charging the battery for the ez-start wand. i have a glow plug ignitor. i believe its a red ofna one. it takes a c battery. but i would like to get a rechargeable ignitor if i went with the pull start. maybe one of them with the meter on it? i mean real soon here im tearing the truck down to put all the new parts i bought on. so that would be the time i would do it. we'll see

well i just won this-

i think i got a good deal. it was $17.10 shipped nip. i looked around and this goes for over $30.00 with shipping. if i decide to go with the pull start, i will use this ignitor instead of the ofna with a c battery. that way i can recharge it and it tells me if my glow plug is good.

Bolt the sucker on there

One pop of the pull and she will fire if it's primed, glow igniter is charged and the plug is good. Almost forgot, tune has to be good too
