You also might need a glow plug reamer, which you won't find at Sears. I have used a drill bit of the appropriate size, twisted by hand. When you finish reaming, turn the engine over with the starter to blow out any leftover carbon. (Before installing the new glow plugs.)

yep, ill second the use of the ratcheting wrenches...they worked out really well for me....one thing i did was attach a piece of a hanger to the top side of the wrench, so i could hold that and move the wrench without having to reach my hands way down in there....its pretty tight quarters on a couple of them....oh yeah, youll need a 8mm to pull the wire off, and a 12mm to pull the GP....and dont drop the little 8mm nuts, i did that and it set me back about 45 minutes because i had to fish it out of the engine compartment, it couldnt have just fell all the way through...good luck
