    Glow Plugs

    CDR, If I recall, you ordered about the same time and got the wrong ones also. Or am I wrong and you actually have the 24 volt 182/ch-42s? Jerry

    Glow Plugs

    About 6 months ago I got ch-42s by error on Champion's part. Wrong plug unless it also says 182 on the box. Sent them back.
