Westebeke W42b


Doug Burr
 

Hi all, I have a question for the 42b people.
Does anyone have a manufacturer and part number for glow plugs for this engine, possibly NGK or Bosch? I am trying to avoid dealing with the Westerbeke parts bandits.

Doug,

The W42B is a marinized Mitsubishi K4F.  Here's the NGK glow plug.  It's about $7.  https://www.ngk.com/ngk-6528-y-114t-glow-plug

But you'll have to get a can of red engine paint for it to work properly...

Thanks Ken, I do have red paint to ensure they work properly. They are $18 in Vancouver Canada but that is typical for living in one the most expensive cities in North America. 
Cheers Doug
