Since I never removed a glow plug before and my tractor started to be hard to start when cold ( crank for 10 seconds and try to start, along with gray and black smoke, start- stall then hold glow plugs again and it will finally start) I assumed I may have a bad glow plug. I decided to remove all three and test them. Simple Idea. I removed the buss bar , no problem. I began to unscrew the glow plugs; I unscrewed for quite a while and they are still in block; I can see about 4 threads that have backed out of block but something is holding them in block. Before creating a problem, I am writing here. What am I missing? After I remove them, is there a test procedure? I was going to just put three new glow plugs in it, but just saw that they are $48.07 each.
