Glow Plug Help

I HAVE HAD SOME TROUBLES WITH GLOW PLUGS

I USUALLY RUN MOTORCRAFT GLOW PLUGS BUT
I CAN'T GET THEM ANYMORE.

I HAVE HAD LOTS OF TROUBLE WITH AUTOLITE, CHAMPION, AND BOSCH THEY BURN OUT WAY TO FAST.
I ONLY GET A MONTH OR SO OUT OF THEM

DOSE ANY BODY ELSE KNOW OF A GOOD GLOW PLUG TO RUN
THAT ARE NOT SPECIAL ORDER AND MABYE HAVE A WARRANTY


EVERYTHING ON THE TRUCK CHECKS OUT OK THE GLOW PLUG CONTROLER THE VOLTAGE AND ALL THE WIRES ARE IN GOOD SHAPE
I DO PUT A LOT OF MILES ON THE TRUCK BUT IT WARMS UP BEFORE IT MOVES.

THE TRUCK RUNS 3000 TO 5000 MILES A MONTH AND DOSE PULL TRAILER MOST OF THE TIME.

BUT THIS SHOULD NOT AFFECT THE GLOW PLUGS

The guys on the pre-powerstroke forum will tell you only to use Motorcraft or Beru glow plugs. You should be able to get them from an International dealership. Do a search on the pre-powerstroke forum and you will get lots of information.

Yea I Know That Is About All You Can Run But For Some Reason The Motorcraft Or Beru Are Special Order And No One Has Them On Hand

I Tried International But They Want 27.80 A Plug And They Have To Special Order Them In .

You Would Think With All The 6.9 Out There It Would Be Easier To Find Glow Plugs
