99 E300TD Cylinder Head Removal
Hey All,
First - thanks for all of the great posts - they have helped greatly with my repairs
-Anyway - tried to replace my glow plugs after reading up on all of the probs - I'm sure you know the rest.
This weekend I'll be removing my cylider head for delivery to the local automotive machine shop. Any good helpful hints, suggestions, links etc would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again

First off dont give up getting it out.....go to peachparts.com and search "broken glow plug & Kartek" and "Notfarnow" and "Alan McRenolyds" for successful extraction methods.
Kartek messed the threads up on his and found a insert that can be used.
Tons of reading there.
