its going to be the 3rd cylinder from the front of the engine. haven't seen one of those engines here in the US, but 4 cylinder engines are always lined up from front to rear in cylinder order. If you are going to do one of them, its best to go ahead and put the entire set of glow plugs in there. No point in having to go through the trouble twice.
