[diesel_mercedes] Re: Glow plug removal

 

All plugs should have that "aluminum looking thing" on the buss bar connector. It's the nut. There should be a slot in the top (side) of the nut which is offset from the centre line. You should be able to get a screwdriver in there and loosen it up. Then a deep socket to go in over the entire plug and unscrew the whole plug. They usually come easier if they are hot, so if possible, run the engine and get it warm. Then there is the unpleasantness of working on a hot engine, so using gloves is a good idea. On the ponton OM621 version of that engine (up to 1961) a wrench could be used because there is a little different intake set up.
