time to pull the head! its the easiert thing to do! it will problaly show the hole in the piston, will show you the damage if any to the valves aand cylinder wall.

we used to brake glow plugs off in hummers i the military all rhe time, they told us not to cause the ceramic tips will crack and damage the engines. so what does any good private do, break more off! till i saw a tear down and saw a piston with 4 glow plugs beat into the piston. that was pretty cool till they ask me how i extacted the last set of glow plugs. so i told them the same way the 3 before me did!
after that i learned the fine art of brake and fish with forceps after
removing the injector!
