      1091 is a diagram of how to use a 528T, which is just a pulse timer.  Just check your installation manual and see if it has a diesel mode, all of the new DEI product (atleast what I have seen) has a menu programmable option to delay the starter for a preset amount of time.  What is the make and model of your starter?
