Year of Manufacture *: 07
Engine Size and Code *: 1991

Hi People,

I have a nightmare wiht this one! a job for the boss ( is Dads ) car he has been into mercedes for a quote for the glow plugs, i was quoted a very high price.

Anyway after taking about 2 hours to get to the glowplugs i have broken one off in the head ( after warning him this could happen) what i need is a tool for removal if anyone could help?

i have the 10mm version of the sykes pickavant tool 08592000 which is fantastic, but i need the 8mm version which i have been trying to find it is out of stock with sykes at the moment i have ordered one but they are saying mid Jan before they have stock.

So is there anyone who could help me?
i am near Newbury Berkshire

Quite common to break on these.

Is this of any use?
