Good morning KJ owners, i'm from Etecno1's R&D department www.etecno1.it, we're manufacturer of diesel glow plugs and under the pressing demand by Cherokee/Liberty 2.8CRD owners we've finally developed a new metal 7V glow plug to replace the original Bosch 80041 7V ceramic glow plug. The glow plug has been specifically designed to have a longer lifespan and be cheaper then the original one. Right now the first samples are ready for engine testing, they already successfully passed all preliminary laboratory test, but we need to make the fine tuning on the glow plug's speed, max temperature ecc..
I'm just wondering if someone reading this forum would accept to be a tester, we'll get rid of all shipping cost for the glow plugs and will be happy to add a new glow plugs set once the product will be released on the market (at this state we guess 4-5 months), free delivered at your address.
please contact me at my personal email address cristiano@etecno1.it

Thank you for your time.

Howdy Cristian - Welcome to LOST - couple of points

1) most CRD folks check 'Liberty CRD...Love that Torque!!' much more often than the General or 4x4 sections - so you should probably repost over there (or a mod could move it)

2) CRD's were only sold in the US for Model years 05/06 - all with the 2.8l

and all with the Ceramic plugs - the new Chrysler metallics require a re flash for 5 volt so a 7 volt version would be much better.

(I might be interested - but my Ceramics were replaced under warranty last year - and I'm in Texas - so you won't get much data from me - unless you want to know how they handle 100F days)

Thank you for your warm welcome, i'll repost in the "Love that Torque" room.
I wish our work will give some benefit to you 7v owners.
Regards.
