Watch out, Max, yours is next. Indy has three 606 engines that have the same issue this week. Two of mine were welded/carboned in. He was going to have to remove the head to get them out, but given that it would triple the repair bill, he spent four hours slowly torquing on them to get them o

I've heard that one of the key steps for removing OM606 glow plugs is to do so on a hot engine. The amount of torque that will result in breaking one off in the head is really low, like 35Nm. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '95 E300, '87 300TD, '73 Balboa 20 clay monroe wrote: >My nasty diesel i
