The box from my slow plugs says Bosch 80010. Below that it says 0 250 201 032-71U. The "-71U" part is in half the type size of the rest of the number. I always ask for them by the Bosch number that all moronic counter help at the FLAPS can understand.

I have just sent a customer some Bosch glow plugs. The boxes all looked the same so I just assumed they were the same plugs inside. When he recieved them he found that there were three different styles of Bosch glow plugs with different numbers on the plugs themselves 0 250 200 052 711 0 250 200 052 710 0 250 201 032 710 (have two of these)

What he wants is the Slow Glow plugs and I have no idea which of these three numbers are the slow glow and which are the faster ones. Can anyone help out on this. This problem is compounded by the fact that the customer is in Panama on a Yacht (where is the Vanagon conten? I have no idea :) and needs these plugs for the VW diesel engine I just sold him. Anty help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Ken Wilford http://www.vanagain.com John 3:16
