Is drilling the back glow plug easy???

[@peterhoskin1803]

Did you rejoin the burnt wire or replace the entire wire. I couldn't read the part number on the video. Could you post the brand and part number please.

[@AutoBuddynz]

Use the link below to find the available wiring looms. shop.ford.co.uk/products/ford-transit-glow-plug-wire In the video I used a heavy duty 8 gauge double insulated wire to replace that part of the loom. I also installed an ANL 100 amp Wafer Fuse inline to replace the burnt OEM fusible link.

@@AutoBuddynz Super impressed with your attention to detail. Pity Australia is half a world away from your workshop. Otherwise I'd be around there in the morning to get my van fixed.
