Glow plug wiring harness

Does anyone know the part number for the glow plug harness in 1985 6.9, or an aftermarket harness? If I can find the clips, it looks easy to manufacture one. Just don't know where to find them either or what they are called.

Thanks in advance

They had two different styles of glowplugs. The early engines used a flat spade type connector, the later ones used a bullet type connector.

I wish. They are wider than those. If I knew the name of the clip, I could probably find them

Well, actually I may need to measure the tabs. There is a site that has all kind of connectors. https://www.waytekwire.com/products/...k-Disconnects/
A good resource even if I can't find the one for the glow plugs.

I have a 7.3 bullet style harness and controller on ebay now. It needs new ends crimped on as the insulation has flaked off most of them. Just crimp new ends on and upgrade to the better 7.3 controller if you want to run a controller. Controller is untested off a parts engine. If you're interested let me know and I can end the auction, I'd let it go for whatever you think is fair. Just trying to clear out stuff I won't use.
