  • Hard starting and poor running when cold are the most common symptoms of bad glow plugs.
    This video was done on a 2016 Ford Everest 3.2 with 215,000km. Models may have slight variations but the bulk of what you see here will be the same.

    Thanks a mill for your wonderfull content. Just finished changing my 2015 xls ranger glow plugs following your videos. Its back on the road. I freaked out a bit when it started the first time then cut off. Tried to restart several times with no luck. Somehow I got the idea that it must be fuel, so I started pumping a bit on the accelerator and it worked. 🇿🇦

    Thanks for the great video, quick question, I’ve been told sometimes the glow plugs will be seized. If I get to taking them out and they feel stuck what do you recommend? A few people say wd40, but in not sure about putting any substance down there. Would you recommend using anti seize on the new glow plugs when installing? Thanks

      @Giovanni-gj9db Ok. It's rare for that to happen. I used Forscan, and the scanner showed the correct spark plugs. Anyway, to take advantage of the disarmament, I replaced all 5 of them.

    I’m experiencing low power at low rpms for my 3.2 ranger, this is after my intake manifold and Egr was cleaned. It was fine for a month or so. Now it’s really low power. Could it be the glowplugs? No check engine light on as well though

    Quick question what is the best real world fuel consumption you can get out of a 3.2, driving at low rpm?

    • @turbostyler
      @turbostyler Рік тому +2

      Low rpm doesn't really save you fuel, it's about load. But I have a 2014 3.2l bt50 and I normally get about 9-10L/100 that's mostly driving in the suburbs and also towing between 1-2 tonne. On the highway you can get easy low 8s without towing anything.
