1984 IDI glow plug change

[84 4x4]

Well, I went ahead and changed the glow plugs on the new truck. Motorcraft ZD-1-A.
It had AC SG plugs. 5 came out easy, 3 needed persuasion, 2 with visegrips, one buried under the fuel lines. It took a combo of pliers and running the engine with a rag stuffed over the plug, heard it blow out.

I guess I got lucky on this one.

I bet you'll remember this experience for a LONG time too. Glad to hear that you got lucky on this.
