i no it was , i tryed to take it back they wont,are the stock gpr junk?? i had the glow plugs out in aug, 2 was brannew, the other 6 was factory, should have changed them then, my realy seams to be working right, one big post has power with key off turn key on other big post has power and one small post after about 1min big post looses power and small post swaps power to other small post, i may just spend the 90 bucks and put all 8 gp in new and do wirers on passanger side that would have to fix it i would think

I wouldn't worry about the wiring, You should replace the glowplugs with motorcraft ZD-11's. The wiring should be fine as long as they aren't burnt.

I always use motorcraft zd-11's, they will not swell up and create problems like the autolites or other glow plugs. You can get them at Oriellys.
Like i said before, if the wiring and gaskets aren't burnt, they are fine and dont need replacing. They are reusable gaskets and wiring. No need to fix what aint broke. With new glowplugs and the relay you should be good to go.
