  • Glow plugs

    I'm going to change my glow plugs in the not too distant future about a month or two - Any recomendations as to which make is the best/resonable cost?
    before any one shouts "use the search button" I have, which is where i fould this little list:

    HKT - PT151
    TOYOTA - 19850-54090
    NGK - Y-715R
    DENSO - 067100-1710
    BOSCH - GPT223
    CHAMPION - CH154

      Are NGK ones any good - I just found some on bay for £17 delivered - NGK make reasonable spark plugs don't they?

        yeah, its a big enough brand to be reliable, I'd be happy with them.

          It was NGK ones I got from Roughtrax so they should be ok assuming the eBay seller is reliable...

            I've never used him before but he's got 100% positive feedback and 700 sales so should be ok

            I've never changed glowplugs on a Surf before is there any washers etc you have to change?

              Nothing that shouldn't come with the glow plugs.

              The only thing I found fiddly was the teeny tiny nuts (steady on!) but thats cos I've got no feeling in my fingertips due to frostbite/vibration white finger from lots of years of riding motorbikes in stupidly cold weather!

              Otherwise it's every bit as much of a doddle as changing spark plugs really.

                when taking the glowplugs out just do it very careful as they have been known to snap off.Don't force them but give a gentle but firm tap on the ratchet to release them if they are tight.I spent about 45mins changing glow plugs as i just wanted to make sure i never snapped any.Its worth taking your time

                  just make sure you put the washers back in the correct order on the buz bar post
