Checked Fastlane and Allparts and got completely different options and prices... What glow plugs are OEM for an 83SD? What is the difference between Fastlane and Allparts anyway? Seems like the same people...
Do a glow plug search and you'll quickly conclude that you should use Bosch or Behru. I don't know about your SD but my 83 300D came with Behru's. I'm still using the originals but it does run a bit rough when first started. Maybe I'm due (or overdue) for new ones.
