    Changing glow plugs... NEK MINNET

    Hi all, changed the glow plugs on my TD42 GQ and now she no go. I have power right across the rail, what else should I test? Oh I blew the fuse for the glow plugs too so gotta find one somewhere!

    They earth through the head. Your power supply sounds like you have a dead short if its blowing fuses. Are the glow plugs the same as what came out?

    Blowing the fuse was my stupid fault. New plugs have a small plastic ring on the top, smaller thread held on with a little 7mm nut. I took them off after it didn't work and I think it shorted them. Turned ignition on and smoke came out of the fuse holder. This is old compared to new look the same to me but different brands.

    No 3D I unplugged the glow rail though and Yes I plugged it back in haha.
    Mat it won't start so I'm assuming it's not glowing? They were definitely the problem in the first place. This is what was smoking, think it's a fuse anyway?
