Well I've done it glow plug replacement

Hi big thanks to all those on here that gave me some advice on the glow plug replacement issue, gave it some thought and had a good look and decided to give it a go myself.
Well i took my time and following instructions from help on here i've done it, replaced all glow plugs, and it now starts first time again on the button just as it used to,so all in all really pleased with myself, and saved myself a few quid as well which is even better. Once again thanks to all those on here for their advice and help.

I can see your face has a proud glow

Well got to say did use few choice words every time dropped socket or spanner, and the front two were the hardest, but i got there in the end so yep really pleased especially when it started on the button next morning. Oh yeh forgot to say i've lost a small 8mm socket somewhere i think i spent longer looking for that than actually doing the job, but it must be wedged in there somewhere?.

You'll forget all about it and then, in a few months, be posting asking for advice for a metallic rattle from your engine.

Can i preempt that by saying it maybe a 8 mm socket down behind the starter motor.

Well i'm sure you'll all remind me about it when i ask about the rattle!!! think maybe need bit of string with a magnet?
