I thought #5 was no harder/easier than the other 4 when I pulled and tested all of mine.........

Here's something that will really burn you up...... My grandma's Chevy 6.5L Turbo diesel pickup has all 8 ORIGINAL glowplugs with 140,000 miles and many of them short city trips plus winter here in MI! This was just verified at the dealer this week that all 8 plugs are working just fine!

Really, what did Benz do wrong on them plugs to make em not last?
