glow plug and relay replacement
1995 F 250 7.3 L power stroke diesel. Due to hard starting since the weather has gotten cold, I am going to replace by glow plugs and glow plug relay. Batteries are excellent. A ford truck servicenter told me I should also replace valve cover gaskets and UVC (?) connectors at the same time. Is this true or are they trying to get more workthanks

If you are going to replace the glow plugs yourself then just check them when you take the vc off.Check for burnt wires or leaking vc gaskets. Some will tell you how to check the pins in the harness for the glow plugs to see if they are ok. I replaced mine just for peace of mind. If you are having a shop do the work,then inspect the outside of the vc gaskets for leaks before they touch it...just to keep them honest.Just my .02
