Well done Woody. Good read and the pictures helped show how far you can go with one.

Robbie, that 3 stage guide is interesting.

Rest well old friend, your work is done.

I just loved the idea of someone removing working glowplugs; perhaps for the fun of it!

After running my 2 stroke for 5k miles, I attempted a couple of my glow plugs, It helped with 1, and if I needed it out, I expect it would have came out. It had completely unscrewed from the head, it was just tight in the hole...

The next one back was still tight. Back to the drawing board Big Cry

I'd be happy with 5 out of the 6.

Good to hear the 2 stroke has helped a bit.

I really want to try a Terraclean next, but there is no point, as all my injectors are Censored and all 6 plugs are working anyway Mr. Green

If anyone else local-ish is planning a Terraclean and needs glow plugs done, let me know Thumbs Up

Didn't seem to be much up with your injectors on the m8 the other evening Laughing might have been letting a bit too much fuel through given the old school blast of black smoke
