From what I have read I got the impression that the Bosch and Beru only applied to the Pencil type Glow Plugs.

I have not read a thread in the Disesl discussion that comments on what is best for the Loop/Filiment type Glow Plugs. Is that over in the Vintage section?

In the pic of the Glow Plug the Arrows point to where Carbon bridging a cross the Glow Plug insulator can cause a short. I don't think that plug would burn but the one coser to the Fire Wall behind it would burn.

Over tightening the Glow Plugs can also cause a short.
