Hi Bob,
I bought the 4 cylinder kit a couple of years ago for $84 - but it may have
increased by now. It comes with the wiring, 4 or 5 pencil type GPs and a
relay - which you won't need as it's for earlier W114/115 cars.
Just remove the old GPs and connecting wires and install new GPs and
connecting wiring - you' re going from a series connection to a parralle
connection - where before you'd get maybe 10v at #4 GP, then 8 at #4, 6v at
#2 and maybe, MAYBE, 3v at #1, you'll get equal voltage to all 4 GPs and the
new style GPs heat up faster. The curve in the WSM shows them getting to
1500F-1800F in about 15 seconds. And you'll be getting all 4 GPs hot
equally. Plus, you won't have all that heavy gauge wire to heat up (it can
be seen glowing red at night) You won't believe the difference and will
wonder why you waited so long. It will also be less stressful on the
battery IMHO.
Best to call him - he seems to have a very limited amount of stuff (compared
to the total he has) on the internet catalog.
Good luck -
Sincerely,

I can't find the fast glow plugs on Rusty's page. Am I losing it?
What would they run for my car?
