How do I by pass the glow plug controller on a 6.2
The pump is worn and I need glow plugs for starting the engine when warm
If the engine is warm, glow plugs are not needed. Sounds like you have a sticky delivery valve in your pump. Try a fuel additive with lubricity and cetane booster. IE PowerService Also, before you start the engine give the foot feed a pump like you would a carburated engine. This will move the valve manually and hopefully work it to free it up a bit.
What else can I help you with?

To test the glow plug controller on a 6.5L diesel engine, begin by ensuring the engine is off and the ignition is in the "off" position. Use a multimeter to check for voltage at the glow plug controller terminals while turning the ignition key to the "on" position; you should see voltage indicating the controller is functioning. Additionally, inspect the controller for any visible signs of damage or corrosion. If the voltage is absent or the controller appears faulty, it may need to be replaced.

Where is the fuse for the glow plug relay in a 1988 Chev diesel surburban?
The glower relay itself and it's associated controller don't have fuses as such. Each glow plug has a fusible link (which is similar) but you wouldn't know to check this if the 'Wait to Start' or 'Glow Plug' light was lit as normal. Troubleshooting a bad glow controller is a little more complex and you need to verify that the plugs themselves are OK first.
How can i tellif a glow plug is bad?
well if you have a code for the glow plug circuit then you may or may not have a glow plug issue. Could be wiring or relay or the controller. If all is ok glow plugs typically have 0.05-0.08 ohms of resistance when bench tested out of vehicle. Good luck hope this helps.

Where are glow plugs located on a 7.3 diesel engine?
The Glow plugs on a 7.3 Diesel International are located at the top of the intake manifold. There is 1 plug for each of the 8 cylinders and each plug will have a single wire connected to the top of it.These 8 wires go into a harness which leads toward the rear of the engine where you will find the "Glow Plug Controller". The engine I am refering to is a 1988 model, however, I would think a 7.3 is a 7.3. The Glow Plug controller has been a source of trouble on mine but check the plugs first.

Where is glow plug fuse in engine department?
Glow plugs don't necessarily have a fuse. They do have fusible links though. That is a wire with a smaller gauge wire in line that will burn should a short occur. On a ford they are usually near the glow plug controller. However all the glow plug wires on idi fords are made of the fusible link wire so they could realistically burn in 2 anywhere.
