Mechanic recommendation near Eugene, OR? (Just in case)

aberator

2004 140" WB
Hi Guys,

I’m about to dive in and attempt to replace my glow plugs. The 2004 van has 230,000 miles on it, and based on the service records I have (I’m the third owner) it’s not clear when, if ever, any of the glow plugs were replaced. Currently I only have ONE functional glow plug, so cold starts are especially difficult.

I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a Eugene based shop, in case things go sideways and I find myself in over my head. If someone knows a shop that would be capable / experienced in handling a glow plug that shears off in the head, that would be especially reassuring information to have in hand. Especially if they could deal with a sheared GP without removing the head.

Thanks to all,

Abe

If worried, spray penetrating oil let it sit over night. Use heat also. If all else fails give me a shout.
