I have a set of new glow plugs with the following info on them. Can anyone tell me about them?

Glow plugs for the 6.2/6.5 engines are available from many suppliers/manufacturers and some are good, some are bad and some you just wouldn't believe.

By far the most reliable off the shelf (Walk in and buy them) are the AC DELCO 60G plugs

If you have ever had to worry out a swollen plug from one of these engines you would be happy to avoid ever doing it again.

**** Note****

Many plugs will swell when they fail, making removal a real pain, if possible without removing the head.

Some times the injector can be removed and the fire port plugged with a rag and the plug broken off and the offending remnant driven into the cup and then fished out.

Having done this a few times I decided not to trust anything other than the 60G Delco plugs.

The ones you mention may be fine, but I am wary.

Just my 2 cents
