2lte glow plug part# (1 Viewer)

[flyfishbc]

i think my dual voltage glow plugs have crapped out. i have been running a wilson switch for a few months, and now need new glow plugs. looking for part # for single voltage plugs, not sure what voltage to go with either. i read on here somewhere about going to 14v so they don't burn out, and the still get plenty hot enough??? not sure . im always scared my wife will hold them on to long
any help would be appreciated. thanks

normally it should be 11v operation,why do u have to alter the system? to manually
operate?

 

[flyfishbc]

i didn't alter the system, the second stage quit working,so i hard wired them straight to the switch. starts much better. the last couple days have been hard starting so i think 1or more are shot so i figure if there are better plugs available, then its a good time to change them, maybe for ones i don't have to worry about melting so easily.

 

[hybric4x4diesel]

oh, ok just replace all 4 at the same time, & c what happen next!

 

[flyfishbc]

that's my plan, but since the super glow system doesn't work, should i be replacing them with a higher voltage plug than the six volt plugs? should i use 12v , 10.5v etc etc. i am always worried that someone will over glow and melt the tips off. if only i drove the truck then i wouldn't worry about it and just get the stock part#. but since they only recieve full voltage and can't drop down to six volts, would a higher volt plug be safer?

One or more stages in these systems fails because either the glow resistor in the intake manifold fails or the connectors inside the plugs near the relays fails.

If you pull the glow plug relay connectors apart and they don't come apart, then they are probably melted internally.

The 2LT-E family of engines uses a plug that is quite distinctly different than the plugs found in the larger diesels. If you are looking for a plug that is more robust, you might have to look for a while, but it should not be easy to burn out an 11V plug on a 12V system - they can often glow for several minutes at a time during cold weather glow cycles.

I am still playing with mines. I tested glow plugs yesterday out of engine. 2 of them were new- Dreik, 2 old- original. Watch the difference between the new and old ones. Interesting the old ones glow faster.
YouTube - Glow plugs

I also tested them one by one and the Dreik ones needed 10s to get red on the tip in compare to the old plugs it took 6s. I will order NGK or TOYOTA glow plugs and see what happens.

Use this site.

http://www.bosch.com.au/content/language1/downloads/Bosch_Glow_Plug_Web_Ready.pdf

You will find a Glow Plug Dimensions page C4/C5 use this for other suitable plugs as in thread size, voltage and inner length...

You will find a Pictures page as well C25

Edit Find GTP-223 Looks like the same plug as in the HZ and HDT 4.2L's

OEM 19850-64031 can anyone find what 19850-17020 looks like or superscedes???


Okay now two nearly identical sites with differnt numbers...Use the Edit find function for GPT-223 and GPT 220

There are a few different glow plugs that will fit, but not all have the same glow time. You need a fast lighting glow plug.

--> Which part numbers did you get - Dreik? And by Toyota number?

you CAN NOT mix and match glow plugs in a system and expect it to work properly.

ALL of the glow plugs must be changed at the same time to get proper glow plug functioning.

Do not get fooled into replacing one or two in a system, it just does not work. Especially if they are made by different manufacturers or have different part numbers.

Do it right once. Don't spend money two or three times effing around with mixed parts.
