Please keep in mind, I'm not turning the wrenches in this video, only commenting about it while I watch along with you. In this one: Jerred = Wrench turner Andy = Cameraman Chris = Comments from his chair. (Look Ma clean hands!)
In this video Jerred will remove the old glow plugs and install new ones in the 6.2 diesel engine found on the M1008 CUCV or CUC-V trucks and most other 6.2 diesel engines made by General Motors for both the Military and civilian market. He'll replace the wiring connectors from the harness with new Gold plated upgrades and demonstrate how to use a Glow Plug Extractor Tool to remove swollen or damaged glow plugs that may have gone too long between changes. This will help solve hard starting issues related to non-working glow plugs and or bad wiring connections common with 6.2 diesel engines. Replacing the glow plugs in a diesel engine is often overlooked but it should be considered routine maintenance similar to changing spark plugs when doing a tune up on a gasoline engine. The glow plugs only operate for a few seconds to warm the cylinder and fuel charge to help the diesel engine during a cold start. Some may think they're a lifetime service part but they're not. Like anything else, glow plugs will degrade over time and should be replaced on a schedule to keep the diesel engine starting properly. When cold weather arrives you'll be glad your glow plugs are in good shape, because if they're not, the engine may not start.
