Wrenching Day?

Well my truck needs glow plugs, but I'm deathly afraid I'm going to break them and bits are going to fall into the cylinders. I also think the relay is going or something. I'm very green with this diesel and pretty much don't know what I'm doing. So I was wondering if anyone would be willing to stop by and help out on sat (05/01) or sun (05/02). I can provide beer/food/whatever.

-Mike
