hi,
Took the landy to get the glow plugs checked out since they still weren't working - mechanic rang at 12 to say all 4 glow plugs were broken inside - ie in bits.
3 came out ok, 1 he can't get out - all that's left in the head now is the cap / shell from the end.
His choices for me were 1) take of head and push it out (too costly) 2) run it as is, and try again in a few weeks to see if its looseded.
I obviously chose 2 - but would like to ask if there is anything i can do to get it out myeslf - without damaging everything.
I presume driving as it is is not a problem as it shouldn't drop down. Also, he put some penetrating oil / gunk to try and loosen it.
Any sugegstions welcome that don't involve taking the head off.
Cheers![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
