I did get #6 and #5 done, but after playing since 11 this morning I couldn't get the #2 gp out. Its nut must've been rusted onto that threaded shaft because it all came out, leaving me with the gp body. I could get a socket in there with a u-joint but it wouldn't budge. I tried going in other ways but no deal. #3 looks even worse of a job. I also noticed the manifold is slightly leaking so it's time for a new gasket on there. So, for the glow plugs and the manifold I admit defeat. I'm taking her in tomorrow AM and let my mechanic do it. Some jobs are worth paying someone else to do it. I try to do what I can on my cars and would rather have it that way. Guess I'll drown my sorrowful defeat with a few brewskies and hot wings tonight.

ps, forgot to say thanks Jim for the info. I actually tried the local Autozone and Napa but they were out. BTW, Pep Boys said they don't carry gp's for cars anymore.
