1989 Other Nissan Models 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 150km miles

Hey, I've got a 1989 Nissan Laurel Diesel (RD28 motor). Just replaced the motor as bought the car with a dead motor :/. So it' all connected up and i turn the key to ON, the leads to the battery get real hot and the glow plug terminal starts smoking... Have checked that it isn't grounding at the glow plugs, anyone got any idea on what could be wrong with it? Cheers. Johnny.

Hi there,

Hi there, you will have a dead short to earth, something is not hooked up correctly, start at the battery and re trace your work, look at every conection, unfortunately i don't have a wiring schematic for this car at hand.
