diesel spark plugs - WHICH ???
« on: 19 February 2011, 18:47:17 »
HI there ... perhaps someone can help .. please.

I drive a 98 2.5 CD Omega estate .. DIESEL ... Had it since new... never any major problems ...

I live in Morocco and a friend is bringing me some spark plugs over from the UK (cos the ones I get here are not the best quality)   question is what is the best available .. and what is the reference number  ... so he can buy them..

Pease help ... best type and reference ... thanks out there

Diesels don`t have spark plugs. Do you mean GLOW plugs

I didn't want to start a 'they are called glow plug debate' ... of course I was stupid to say 'spark' when it's a diesel .....but hey 'that's life' ....

Thanks to Brikhead for answering the question with a plug reference number ... which is what I was after ... as I find NGK as a response of little help without a number.

I currently use Bosch ... but wondered if there was better.

Thanks for any debate ... but I am limited in Morocco for availability and quality and need to ensure that my mate brings me the best possible from the UK.

Thanks from Mr.GLOW plug
