Title: installing glow plugs in aaz
Post by: trent77 on November 30, 2008, 11:26:06 am

I feel like the luckiest guy on earth right now, but maybe I shouldn't. I have always read that installing glow plugs on the idi's was a tough job, it took me just over an hour from start to finish, maybe today is the day to buy a lottery ticket.

It's really not a hard job...just need to be patient.  I always remove the injection lines to make access easier.

it's not fun if you have the injector lines on and the cold start cable in the road :x

ditto. My fingers are too fat to do this with the lines still on.
