Unsiezing glowplug - Mondeo TDCI

[Transmitter Man]

At least one is down as car only starts on Easy Start so prefer to change all four on this eBay shed I just picked up.

Very aware that these can break so would like to see what the PH brain trust suggest as best way to un-sieze?

Thanks.

Thank you all.

Yes, T-bar and Plus Gas sounds the best idea.

Off to Halfrauds.

I prefer to change all four to minimise any breakdown in the future.

Worthwhile adding some Copperslip to the new glowplugs?

Hi Martyn,

Engine runs sweet after an Easy Start start so I don't think I have an injector or pump problem.

This shed has been neglected by it's previous owner who only replaced or repaired when it broke!

This of course costs double in the long run and I'm the sucker that's now determined to get this motor running as it should.

I should be attacking the glow plugs tomorrow.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Other work stopped play.

Gearbox seal was weeping so this is being sorted first - I do not like leaks.

Weather now closing in, even here in London.

I will update when done.

Hope I don't need to use the services of Middlesex Re-bore

They have been tested as you suggest and all four are dead!
