Hey George

I had a similar problem only this left me with a dead battery. The contacts had welded themselves together during the start cycle and ran the battery down. I did change over to slo-plugs when I did the head job so I didn't burn anything out however a normal fast glow would have burned the tips off. I have since changed over to hand control using 2 Bosch power tab relays and split the circuit up and used the power antenna switch to control the relays. I was starting on some really cold days recently with no problems or smoke.

Something to maybe consider when the controller fails again. I can give you the wire codes within the harness to make the job easier. BTW How is my intercooler intake manifold coming?
