[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 130895, member: 82"] Honestly, you are throwing good money after bad. Glow plugs will not fix your issue, if you remove them and use a battery and cable, see if they glow to the tip, if they do, your glow plugs are fine. We see it often at work, customers will buy parts off us, it fails to fix the issue, and they send their engine up to us for a rebuild. Put your money towards machine work. At the very least, pull the head and feel if there is a ridge at the top of the bore, if there is a lip, you need machine work doing, take it to .5mm over size, or if it's too far gone, get it machined to fit 1902 pistons, it will give you a little more power.
