Instructions

Push-fit Top Connection Removal Tool star socket (6) onto top of glow plug. It may needto be tapped on gently with a hammer.
Using a 3/8″ ratchet handle, turn clockwise to break off the top part of the glow plug.
Note: When top portion of glow plug breaks, it may also shear off the inner glow plug electrode. If the inner electrode does not break, it can be withdrawn completely from the glow plug body. In this case go straight to point 5. If the inner electrode does shear off, then continue to point 3:
Position Centring Sleeve (10) onto remains of glow plug. It may need to be tapped on.
Using 3.5mm pilot drill (11) drill a pilot hole into remains of connector post / electrode. Drill down at least 15mm past uppermost part of the glow plug body.
Fit either M8 (8) or M10 (9) dual-size stepped drill (depending on size of glow plug) to the drill holding adaptor (2). Secure stepped drill into adaptor by tightening the grub screw with hex key (7) provided, ensuring the grub screw acts on the flat on the shank of the stepped drill. Fit the drill holding adaptor to chuck of power drill and drill out remains of connector post / electrode and threaded portion of glow plug body.
Care Point:
The dual-size step drill allows removal of the remains of the connector post / electrode while also removing the threaded portion of the glow plug body. Take care to keep the drill straight so that the threads in the cylinder head are not damaged. Drill down again at least 15mm to remove all of threaded portion.
Take either M8 (13) or M10 (14) tap (depending on size of glow plug) and fit to Ratchet T-Bar provided (1). Clean out / ecut the threaded portion of cylinder head. Coat the tap in grease to lubricate and also contain the swarf produced.
Take the 1/4″ tap and fit to Ratchet T-Bar provided (1). Cut a thread in the remaining glow plug body. Again coat the tap in grease to lubricate and also contain the swarf produced. Cut a full 15mm of thread. The remains of the glow plug body can now be removed:
Screw a puller adaptor mandrel (15) into the 1/4″ thread that has just been cut.
Screw on the force screw (4) to the puller adaptor mandrel.
Fit the puller outer housing (3) over the force screw.
Screw on the force nut (5) with raised collar facing inwards.
Holding the force screw with a 12mm spanner or socket, wind the force nut down (30mm spanner). This action will draw out the remains of the glow plug body free from the cylinder head.
Before fitting the new glow plug, thoroughly clean inside the aperture with a wire brush or similar. Ensure that all swarf, dirt and debris is removed from aperture, glow plug thread and combustion chamber before fitting new glow plug.
