According to my local ford counter the ZD9 plug and the ZD29 plug are the same plug except that the ZD29 is sold in bundles of two, maybe that is also the case for the motorcraft ZD28?
So my GP harness is pretty sketchy after all these years. You'd whole-heartedly suggest switching to the Bosch while I'm in there? I've had decent history with Beru's but there is so much bad news with them lately. Makes me wanna switch it up.And if you dont mind changing your connector to the glow plug, the bosch 80034 is a much better plug for manual control. I have been using them for pretty close to 15 years now with no failures. I ALWAYS put them in anything that has a button for glow plugs.
So far, they have had a perfect track record for me (bosch 80034). They dont get hot quite as fast as the beru plugs for these trucks, but have not had a single complaint on all of the sets I have installed.So my GP harness is pretty sketchy after all these years.

I'm guessing you get really cold temps in SW Montana, so your track record with the Bosch is even better.
Are those by any chance the dual coil plugs?So far, they have had a perfect track record for me (bosch 80034). They dont get hot quite as fast as the beru plugs for these trucks, but have not had a single complaint on all of the sets I have installed.
THese are NOT the bosch plug for the 6.9 7.3. They are made for the 6.2 6.5
Not too worried about changing the harness if i can find something that worksAnd if you dont mind changing your connector to the glow plug, the bosch 80034 is a much better plug for manual control.

Not really havent had to ise them but twice so far so good. Only thing im trying this time is doiing multiple 4 sec runs to avoid stressing them we will seeAny updates? I just switched over to a big White Rodgers GP relay and after working twice, I lost 7 of 8 GPs when I've never lost more than 2 over years and years of driving.
So now I'm in a similar boat...hoping the backup set I installed today won't suffer the same fate.
That's crazy.Any updates? I just switched over to a big White Rodgers GP relay and after working twice, I lost 7 of 8 GPs when I've never lost more than 2 over years and years of driving.

It sounds like these guys should start running the Bosch glow plugs that Black Dog mentioned. I think that I may use them in my Ex Wife project.That's crazy.
That's my plan for when I start figuring out what I'm going to do with my dually.It sounds like these guys should start running the Bosch glow plugs that Black Dog mentioned. I think that I may use them in my Ex Wife project.
When this set dies thats my plan.It sounds like these guys should start running the Bosch glow plugs that Black Dog mentioned. I think that I may use them in my Ex Wife project.
I just hope Bosch appreciates our advertising.When this set dies thats my plan.
