glow plug harness interchange

i have a broken connector where the glow plug harness connects to the wiring coming from the relays and solenoid(86 6.9idi ). its the relay side that is broken. does the 7.3idi use the same connector? I know where i can get a harness off a 7.3idi. i know the glow plug harness is different(spade vs. bullet) thanks

Are you talking about the 6 wire engine harness connector, does it have the two large yellow wires in it. If so this is a bad connector and susceptable to burning up.

The 7.3 does not use the same connector.
The 87 6.9 does not use the same connector.

When I burnt mine up I just cut the connector out and spliced the wires together.
Everything worked perfectly.

Ford Does not have the connector either, unless you but the entire wiring harness on the truck and engine side of the connector.
