I will only use Beru or Bosch. (OM621, 61x, 601-603)  I have used 
neverseeze on the threads.  You never want the neverseeze on the tip, 
but you can carefully put it on the threads.


I recently had to change the GP relay on the 603.  Glow light was  only 
2-3 seconds.  GPs all checked good.  Installed a used GP Relay, and 
alles gut.

Wasn't there discussion about this recently? Beru, Bosch, NGK are
names on the used plugs removed and replaced today. For the past few
weeks, one glow plug gone allowed tough starts, but, earlier this week
another plug failed and that is a tough start. Warm calm day here so
the used plugs got this thing running, but without dash warning light
because hamfist broke off a wire connector.

Question: what was the recent consensus - Bosch (France), Beru
(Germany), NGK (Orient)? Was it Craig who did GP change recently?
The two GP replaced today came out quite easy. Is it okay to use
anti-seize on threads? or is that bad for electric connection?
Thanks.

Last I knew Beru was the preferred. I think thats all I've used on anything 
except Angie's Golf which requires NGK.

Beru are the OE plugs and seem to last a great deal longer than the Bosch and 
others.  They are also more expensive, hence the “you get what you pay for” 
adage comes into play here.
