thought toyota glow plugs where £25 each ish (w00t) mid engined (w00t) depends what access you have when you remove the cowl . think you have to be careful as if they to tight seized, they could brake off, BIG PROBLEM THEN. no fitters do a bit of w/e work to keep the cost down.

:cheers: for the scarf set spot on,hope you get sorted :thumbsup:

My OH just replaced the Glow Plugs in our fourtrak, I had a look around at prices, and they varied greatly. I bought a set of 4 for £15 off ebay, arrived the next day and voila - Hubby can thrash around in the mud again :wacko:

I'll ask him how easy it will be on your van.

Sorry I'm no help but hope you get it sorted out soon :wacko:

Glad to hear both you and your Houndmobile are firing on all cylinders again Tony. I hate bloody Hypo's my Dad could go through a bout of them quite often, not nice.

Take care, and remember to watch out for the signs of one or Wendy will be there with pins again :- "
