of Glow plug tests. with measurements, tip temp reading, durations and failure analysis for all these plugs we keep talking about.
Anyone want to donate a plug to get tested? PM me, I'm not doing anything wild, like pumping 36 volts into one or anything, Just 12v, take tip temp with an IR thermometer from start to finsh, stop watch to measure time to failure or up to 3 minutes, and measure amps and resistance cold and hot.
and I'm not stopping the recording so there is no doubt what I tested.
When I'm done, if I can't get it on youtube, I'll make DVD's and send it to whom ever wants it.
Also, I'll be taking physical dimensions from each and noting special features for reference. I have a digital caliper to measure it with, so I can measure before and after heating to see which ones swell.
I'll need these models to test: in the original packaging.

If we all pitch in, I could get this video done over the holidays.
