Well I just spent a frustrating morning replacing these glow plugs.

Three of them are stuck in the head -- the rearmost three on the driver's side. I screwed those three back down tight and left them disconnected from the harness.

I got the other five replaced with the AC Delco's.

Engine started right up after four seconds of glowing. Hopefully it does that well even on a cold morning.

When you go to the advanced page theres a button that you can click after highlighting the section you want to quote...
THANK YOU!!

You'll find it tough to start on 5 glow plugs....
What year is the truck? 83-86 early style controller or 87-94 newer style controller?
The newer style controller won't fire unless all plugs are good...
Oh wait, manual control anyways...disregard the last sentence.
You DO want to get those plugs out...PB Blaster is your best friend. Spray it in there and slowly work the plugs out. Careful not to break a tip off

Another right turn!
For Sale: 1942 John Deere B, new tires runs good, missing seat and steering wheel, perfect for the farmer who lost his a$$ and don't know which way to turn.

so to get this back on track.... what brand where the plugs you did remove? pics? i would have a very hard time believing the swelled ones are motorcraft. only way i could see them swelling is if the controller went out and the power didn't shut off to the plugs.
