SynonymForTree Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi, I was going to change my glow plugs tonight - first time doing this. I've taken off the first wires on the first plug and its come off OK but I noticed the plastic was a bit cracked, on the next one I've taken off part of the plastic has stayed on the plug. Is this just because they are brittle and old - I assume the wiring has never been changed and got weak - or is it something I've done wrong? Anyway, wondering of my next best steps - can anyone recommend what parts to go for from here? I can't find an exact part match so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynonymForTree Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 I'm now thinking of finding a breaking AVG engine and taking them off that Anyone know what these need to be rated too or done this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynonymForTree Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 I'm also considering gluing some plastic bits together... the electrical connector are fine, I think it just needs this to sit tightly on the glow plug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 On a petrol they're known as the leads but not sure what they're called on a diesel. You should be able to source them new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
