1. Push it in stops the engine
2. Neutral position engine runs
3. If you pull it out one position its the glow plugs for as long as you hold it
4. Then if you pull it one more position it operated the starter
The only thing the key dose on these cars is lock/unlock the steering and turn the electrical system on. You can remove the key lock up the car and leave it running as long as you want. I had one with an air leak in the injection system that was a bear to start even warm so I would take it to the store and leave it running with the doors locked no key and no steering!
larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?
Oh that's classy. I want one!
