Your best test instrument is a clipon multimeter. These have like a donut that clips around the feed cable to measure DC current. Each glow plug should pull 12 amps. The beauty of this test method is no disconnection is required.

I bought BERU - which are the genuine "Citroen" part according to the box. £6 a piece from eurocarparts.com (they have a local outlet). Are they very good Glow plugs???and are u having any problems with them? > > I am not going to mess a round i am just going to fit new > > ones.fitting Champions CH 163.then i am ready for any very cold [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > "Citroen" part according to the box. _6 a piece from eurocarparts.com (they > have a local outlet). >Are they very good Glow plugs???and are u having any problems with them? > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >> "Citroen" part according to the box. _6 a piece from eurocarparts.com (they >> have a local outlet). I would definitely use Beru and give Champions a miss, and Halfords own a VERY wide berth!!! >>Are they very good Glow plugs???and are u having any problems with them? >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > I would definitely use Beru and give Champions a miss, and Halfords > own a VERY wide berth!!! halfords in leeds source quite a lot of parts from andrew pages i find i can play them off against each other to get a cheaper price >>Are they very good Glow plugs???and are u having any problems with them? >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > I would definitely use Beru and give Champions a miss, and Halfords > own a VERY wide berth!!! I've used Halfords and so has a friend and had no problems.  SignatureMalc Permitted to use the outs de lan > Are they very good Glow plugs???and are u having any problems with > them? Well they are the genuine manufacturers part. If there was a problem with them you would probably see a lot of complaints in this group, whereas a google groups search shows very little for glow plugs at all, except warnings about Halfords own branded product. I have only just fitted mine replacing Bosch which were probably the 1997 originals. > > > I am not going to mess a round i am just going to fit new > > > ones.fitting Champions CH 163.then i am ready for any very cold [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > the genuine "Citroen" part according to the box. _6 a piece from > > eurocarparts.com (they have a local outlet). |
