good luck . the garage told me its striping the the engine to bits to get it out from the inside. plus surely it would run like crap if you gor a snapped plug

hi no it runs ok but uses a bit of diesel but dont think glowplug would cause this it is terrible starting first thing surely engine doesnt have to be stripped

well the head and if they still dont come out its drilling them out . vx will tell you that . i had one that rounded off half way in .but i was luckly the garage said . he managed to hit a 9mm on and got it to move because if he could'nt get it out or it snaped he told me it would cost about £400
