Ok so my patrol is getting harder to start in the mornings, so after reading some people are changing them every 50,000k's I thought that seeing my old girl has just over 200,000k's that I would give it a bit of a treat, anyway I got a new set of Bosch ones, pulled the old ones out and they don't look half bad.
I have all the bits to do the glow plug mod a bit later on.

What do you guys reckon?

With the right three kind of living. And here are the First two, especially the second one is in very good condition. And the question, why Bosch and NGK?

The first one is a new Bosch one as a comparison to the old ones.
Haven't tested the ones that came out.
Anyway changed them out last night and it started a lot smoother and easier this morning.
next job on the list is the glow timer mod.

Check the starter motor solenoid cables, that both positive and negative nuts are securely fastened; it can be as simple as not enough contact.
