Sometimes you do have to "do what ya gotta do", however I've been starting this car with no glow plugs for at least 2 weeks now and it starts just fine. Heck, pancakes the 240D with no history on the engine and a ton of miles started in the winter with no glow plugs.

I did get 6 new Bosch GP's with the car so I will be replacing those all on Friday. Just need to stop by harbor freight and get a 1/4" universal joint and a section of fuel line and I'll be good to go.
Don't forget to ream the holes once you take out the GPs.
