OK we'll just have to do it KGB style.

"Right Komrade Makeitfitski, why for do you want to know what sort of engine you are having you capitalist lapdog?"

..and if you don't comply i WILL set Olga on to you.....:augie

 

[makeitfit]

Send the Olga quick sharp, I wish to come out of the cold:lol
I need to know how to understand the code numbers so I can get the right glow plugs innit :thumbs

 

[tezzer]

most part shops only need the reg number, or take one out and tell them the number, simples comrade. :thumbs

 

[makeitfit]

I was rather hoping Olga would get one out for me :lol
My truck is on a change over year so they wouldnt g'tee the correct plugs:augie
Just wanted to avoid doing the job twice

hi makeitfit,
your reg number didnt come up on the computer so went without, and the only ones they came up with was as follows,
from-15-5-96 to 15-3-98 thats your build date part number 1960555 £47.80 inc vat each.
but are no longer available from ford but if you search some dealers might have some old stock on the shelf,
they didnt list a choice only 1 type for the 2.7td hope this helps,
cheers eboy.
