Guide for changing the glow plugs on the TD and also a travelling mechanic ?
« on: 04 April 2013, 22:00:18 »
Hi all,

1. Is there a guide for changing the glow plugs on the TD? I looked but I couldnt find a step by step with pictures

2. Do we have any travelling mechanics on here that might be interested. I just want to have all the infobefore I decide what to do ie 2 hours work from me vs £xx cost from an expert etc etc.

Please feel free to PM me or let me know who to contact and I can PM them.

I am in Watford, Herts.

Thanks

I can do in an hour, but then I've done it more than once ;D

Whip intake off, and they are right there, easy.

You *may* need new intake gaskets. I never did, but my intake was on and off like a whores underwear.
