Can anyone suggest a decent set of glow plugs for my 1990 W463 300 D please? Are there any decent after market options?

Thanks Mud

NGK and Beru are two good brands you can't go wrong with, check internet and ebay for prices, i've had some ngk's at under a fiver each, also you gotta watch the glow plugs haven't carboned up, they could break in situ, i've just had that problem with a 606 and four snapped ! I know a man who can remove them without removing cylinder head, will post pictures next week . Be Careful

Note:

Replacing glow plugs may require reaming of the plug holes if there is carbon build up otherwise heavy deposits could impair G/Plug life.
