Video tutorial

In this video, see how to replace the glow plugs on a Fiat Ducato 2.5 Aspirated. Unfortunately, on this engine, the fuel pump is located in front of the glow plugs, making the space very tight.

You can find this component on eBay with the code 264971841365 for £20.00 plus £8.00 delivery. When changing, it's advisable to replace all of them.

You will need three spanners: one 10 mm, one 13 mm, and one 8 mm. First, disconnect the bar that supplies the glow plugs, then remove the bolts along the bar. Spray a bit of WD-40 on the glow plugs to help remove them; remember that in front of one of these is the fuel pump (remove it from underneath).

Apply some grease to the threads of the new glow plugs and reverse the entire procedure.
