NGK's advice must be refined: 1. If the plug does not move: pour oil, penetrating oil (brake fluid in extreme cases) etc with a syringe, only to fill the small cavity around the plug. 2. When/if the plug moves: try to move it as much as you can and leave it in an intermediary position, not tight when you tighten it or when you try to release it, so the thread will allow the oil/penetrating oil/etc to run in there and the engine shakes the plug around. 3. Do this for as long as you have to (in my case, 2 months) and, once in a while, try to screw/unscrew the plug as much as you can. 4. Most of the time, it's not the thread blocking the plug (in that case, you are "screwed"). It's the carbon deposit around the plug, in the combustion chamber, probably because your injectors are not working properly. If you manage to unscrew the plug but it is still not coming out, pour penetrating oil around it, let it swim for 1 day and then try again. Force it out with a spanner while rotating the plug with a socket wrench. Requirements: time, patience, good access plugs, luck.
@@maxzoom999 A good homemade penetrant is a 50/50 mix of acetone and automatic transmission fluid. But the number one penetrating fluid is seafoam deep creep.

Hi Ferenc, yes it is. Oil in combination with temperature, time, and attention to the pull-off torque can help loosen the glow plug. Oil is also used to loosen stuck screws and corroded metal joints.

Hi, please have a look at our quick guide on how to distinguish between original and fake products: www.ngkntk.com/newsroom/social-news/emea/fake-products-how-to-avoid-them/?fb=emea

Why do engine manufacturers NOT apply a high temp anti-seize to the plug during engine manufacture? The only reason can be is they want the plugs to break on removal to support their dealerships.
Hi Terry. Anti-seize, grease, or oil reduces the friction between the spark plug and the cylinder head to an extent that cannot be estimated but the correct tightening torque is defined under clean and dry conditions. That means it is extremely likely to over torque the spark plug during installation. Possible consequences can be: damage of the spark plug metal shell and spark plug structure, overheating and electrodes can melt, engine damage, and damage of the thread in the cylinder head.
I have a broken tip stuck in my head and I was think to flood it with EGR cleaner and turning the engine on. Do you think that piston could blow it out without causing more damage ??
***** once the piston starts to create negative pressure the intake valve opens. Then the piston goes up creating high pressure that should push tip out. I am sure that it won't suck itp in and just more concern about the power it would blow it out
@@xdygmnyrdf There's always a better way to do it, and when you did it the better way there is still a better way to do it. Is called evolution. For example they could have designed an easier way to acces those glow plugs. I treat spark plugs like this. Every year i take them out, so they never reach to that point of wich the thread will break, doing this i also know if a spark plug is too worn, and i have to replace it(i personally replace all of them when one is compromised). You don't need no special tools, or thread cleaner or anything if you simply remove them from time to time the threads will clean itself. But newer cars everything is so compact and tights even an operation like thise require to strip things off the engine. Wich is why glow plugs are left to rot till is too late, because it requires a shop and special tools and knowlage. Most people don't know what is what when take the cover off the engine. Everything is designed to eat more money. First they could have started by making an easy acces to those glowplugs, then make a larger diameter hole and thread, beefing it. But these engines are designed to last as much as the warranty, every car maker should state this clear to new buyers.
If Alcon Coppersolid Copper Mounting Paste is used in the assembly of spark plugs, this is not troublesome. Bujilerin montajında Alcon Coppersolid Bakırlı Montaj Pastası kullanılır ise bu zahmet yaşanmaz
Using anti size will throw off the torque specifications, with that said just don't torque it to the max. Some anti seize compounds such as "silver goop" contain 20%-30% pure silver. "Silver Goop" is suitable for up to 1500°F. ( ) However, "Silver Goop" is Not recommended for use on aluminium. As we all learned in school, SILVER is only second to GOLD when it comes to conducting electrons. (Copper is much less than silver or gold when it comes to free electrons in the outer atomic layer....ie ELECTRONIC CONDUCTIVITY) In any case - the glowplugs have 2 (two) surfaces where they contact the head. 1)Threads 2)taper-seat (between the threads and the heater) Most folks only apply antiseaze to the threads so the taper-seat is still "dry". Personally, I apply to BOTH the therads and the taper-seat. Even if somone was to use some kind of non-conductive paste on BOTH the threads and taper-seat... it would be almost impossible to eliminate the electrical-contact with the head. Bottom-line: Dont worry about what kind of antiseaze compound you use... as long as it is rated for use on aluminum. Before you call me an idiot let it be known I am a dealership master tech and have 23 years of experience .
What the f..... How about put some heat resistant grease on new glow plug threads?? most important thing. But advise how to remove old plug is really helpful, just some wd-40, time and patience.

Is there a preburn chamber? If so, you can likely remove the injector, push the tip through and catch it with a magnet. Blow/vacuum debris out of cylinder, then reassemble.
If the stem broke below the threads, drill and tap it, thread a long bolt into it with a stack of washers and a nut on it, and pull (press) the stem out like an old bearing.

Diesel engines use glow plugs instead of spark plugs in a gasoline engine. Diesels are high heat/ high compression engines, and diesel fuel is not ignited using a spark. The glow plug heats up the cylinder and allows the diesel fuel to combust properly.
Glow plugs are used when starting the diesel engine in the cold as cold air is difficult to ignite , hence they warm up the air before being compressed

@@Sandwich420 - suppliers chase money while engineers slowly make things more difficult to service. a responsible company would deny a companies request for a 10 mm glowplug. a glowplug with larger threads could fit very easily and would be that much stronger but in a world that chases disposable tin can cars and manufacturers that gladly make and supply them it is what it is. by rights aluminum threads on an engine should be illegal. especially regarding critical applications. a cast in steel insert is more than easy to accomplish in this day and age. i can tell you an old story, never touch an engineers shoulder if he tries to walk away from you because he is too all mighty to argue a non engineers better perspective. they will snap. in my life, i've only looked into the eyes of a few people that would have torn my eyeballs out if they could have. an engineer was one of them. when push comes to shove they just act like they are illiterate and try to leave the room as if reading was a curse. its the mentality that drives every auto manufacturers engineering department. its why their is ZERO STANDARDIZATION in the industry and why every engine bay is becoming exponentially more like an abortion every year. engineers wouldn't be caught dead swinging wrenches. neither would the white collars of any major car maker. only grunts do that. lets feed them shit. its like that scene from fight club when they catch that guy in the bathroom. where's the rubber band!

Check out this channel Project Farm. He tests about 20 different penetrating oils including WD40, diesel, ATF & plain water.

May I know what is a glow spark plug is???
Diesel engines use glow plugs instead of spark plugs in a gasoline engine. Diesels are high heat/ high compression engines, and diesel fuel is not ignited using a spark. The glow plug heats up the cylinder and allows the diesel fuel to combust properly.
Glow plugs are used when starting the diesel engine in the cold as cold air is difficult to ignite , hence they warm up the air before being compressed
Good video sir
Has any body tried Kroil for this instead for WD40?
Virtually all penetrating lubricants are better than WD40. Kroil has a good reputation.

"put some oil"... what type of oil? engine oil? mineral? synthetic?
Hi, it doesn't matter which oil you use. You can use some of the oil from the dipstick for example.
@@NiterraEMEA I think it really matters : heat resistand deeply penetrating shyntetic solvents - as known burnt carbonised oil is really difficult to slack
pls tell me the name of 3d program
ps
320d wont start and diesel dont go to diesel rail from high pressure pump to injectors
is someone out there proven these trick and it works?...
Which grease is used for cleaning?
@@NiterraEMEAIs carb cleaner can do the trick?
Lithium grease should be ok
Well thats time waisting , why just not make or remake a stronger version plugs ???
@@NiterraEMEA sounds like an issue u may have with the suppliers you supply. ur response was highly UNPROFESSIONAL.
@@michael-dm2bv i agree, NGK are meant to be one of the top companies to make these and spark plugs yet* so many people snap them with little to no force applied. It's such a disaster to have these break and costs a small fortune to have them removed.
This reminds me of those Ford engines that use the thin spark plugs that snap off in the engine. It's mainly the engine manufacturer. The part supplier is also at fault for making parts that are doomed from the beginning.
@@Sandwich420 - suppliers chase money while engineers slowly make things more difficult to service. a responsible company would deny a companies request for a 10 mm glowplug. a glowplug with larger threads could fit very easily and would be that much stronger but in a world that chases disposable tin can cars and manufacturers that gladly make and supply them it is what it is. by rights aluminum threads on an engine should be illegal. especially regarding critical applications. a cast in steel insert is more than easy to accomplish in this day and age. i can tell you an old story, never touch an engineers shoulder if he tries to walk away from you because he is too all mighty to argue a non engineers better perspective. they will snap. in my life, i've only looked into the eyes of a few people that would have torn my eyeballs out if they could have. an engineer was one of them. when push comes to shove they just act like they are illiterate and try to leave the room as if reading was a curse. its the mentality that drives every auto manufacturers engineering department. its why their is ZERO STANDARDIZATION in the industry and why every engine bay is becoming exponentially more like an abortion every year. engineers wouldn't be caught dead swinging wrenches. neither would the white collars of any major car maker. only grunts do that. lets feed them shit. its like that scene from fight club when they catch that guy in the bathroom. where's the rubber band!

a glow plug is NOT a spark plug, wrong title.
Boa noite mais qual óleo usar

no good , what if the glow plugs are gone ,how you gone drive it.
Hopefully you only snap one. The engine should still run.
22Nm (190 in•lbs) shear torque for an M8 plug!?No wonder shade-tree mechanics snap plug off like dry twigs... :-/

Why diesel dont go throw to diesel rail from high pressure pump pump
