« Last post by Vijay on June 04, 2025, 02:32:00 PM »Finally got the glow plugs out today. Been spraying WD for weeks. I took my time going back and forth and with each nervous turn, the 2 seized ones finally came out. Both were dead.
So I did a compression test and got the following 460, 380, 390 and 400. The 2 dead glow plugs came out of 2 and 4 (380 and 400).
I didn't do a wet compression test with oil as I read it could severely damage an diesel engine

Wasn't there a trick with mr muscle to help sticking vanes?
I'm sure it'll be on briskoda if there is.
Don't know what I was thinking, of course the turbo is before the inlet so WI wouldn't do a thing lol
