| Are you using the washer for the gluw plug? If you don't, install a washer for it. Tight the glow plug when the engine is cool that way you can adjust a little tighter without strip the cylinder head bottom. Try this and replay back with results. GL |

| That is odd! You sould have something that vibrate a lot when runing to make that plug comes out. Did you remove any washers from the cylinder head? |

Hey trice0683,
You wouldn't happen to be using an OS-8 plug or similar "short" plug, would you? |
