Subject: Re: [MBZ] OM606 glow plug renewal
Status report.
#1 has broken.
#2 loose, threads out, carbon holding it but should come out.
#3, #4 moving a little bit.
#5 out and replaced. Old plug star-marked Beru.
#6 not attempted yet.
#1 was moving, torque wrench set at 30 Nm. I was moving it slowly back
and forth, getting just a little movement when it let go. Liberal use of
penetrating oil, hot engine.
Monday I will call around to see if any local shop has the special tool
set for drilling out the broken plug.
