Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re : Glow Plug Testing

 

    This suggestion sounds really good.  But it works way better when the guy who says he has one of those thermometers hasn't forgotten where he put it for 'safe keeping'.

Another quick & dirty way is to buy a $20 Infra Red Thermometer from Harbor Freight and shine it at the base of each glow plug where it screws into the cylinder head , as the relay is on , engine cold ~ this way NO BURNS (it cannot be overstressed how badly a Glow Plug will burn you !!) , if the thermometer shows a lot of heat , shine it on the next glow plug , when you find some that are not blistering hot , those are the bad ones .
