Glow plug resistor, part 2
Shown here is the mounting bracket fabricated for the 'sensing resistor' for the glow system. The bracket bolts to two unused holes in the valve cover. The resistor (a metal strip with wires attached) was bent slightly to meet the bracket and the glow power bus. Note the nut used as a spacer so it doesn't short to the bracket - I forgot to check the clearance before I welded the captive nut on the underside and it was touching the bracket (too concerned about it clearing the intercooler, which it does by miles).
