with post-heating, you should only use glow plugs with the marking "GN"!
What you should take note of during fitting:
- Dirt around the thread must not fall into the combustion chamber under any circumstances.
- The glow plugs and the connecting nuts must be tightened to the correct torque. In case of excessive tightening torque, the glow plug may be damaged. This can result in irreparable damage to the plug (destruction of connecting pin or overheating due to reduction of the annular gap).
Fitting the glow plug with a torque wrench
It is imperative that you observe the manufacturer's stipulations.
Attention — observe maximum tightening torque:
- Gewinde M 8: 10 Nm
- Gewinde M 9: 12 Nm
- Gewinde M 10: 15 Nm
- Gewinde M 12: 22 Nm
Fitting the glow plug if a torque wrench is not available
Screw in glow plug until it contacts the engine block. Tighten approx. 30° using a suitable tool.
Our tip: To be able to undertake the work properly and correctly, we recommend the purchase of a torque wrench.
