Anybody have a glow plug reamer to sell?

[jbach36]

I placed something on the tool exchange forum, but nobody's written back, thought I would post here. Anyone have one to buy or borrow? I'm in metro Atlanta. Would be great to get one right away while the weather is still warm. Cold spell comes tomorrow! Yikes!

It's a W124, 1991 300d. I think that's a 602 engine?

^^^ Fastlane sells them.


Also, forum member diesel911 makes a very nice custom one. PM him.

and you could make one yourself if you are in a bind. Do some searching and you find great pictures. Make sure to properly set the drill bit to a safe depth so as not to damage the ball in the PC.

Do like me its easy,a caveman can do it.
Take a old glowplug,beat it flat with a hammer (the end). Then take a grinder or file and sharpen two edges,like a two edge sword.
Make sure the diameter is still (or width) is little larger than glowplug.To big and it won't go thru prechamber holes.Now you can screw your tool is all the way,to break carbon deposits off.
Be sure to turn engine over to expell carbon.

As the first reply said, Diesel911 is making them, about $20 if I remember correctly.
