Maintain a reliable electrical connection to your glow plug system with this Genuine Nissan Glow Plug Nut, designed for Nissan Patrol GQ and GU models fitted with TD42 and RD28 diesel engines. This small but critical OEM fastener secures the glow plug bus bar or power feed to the top of the glow plug, ensuring consistent current flow for reliable cold starts and smooth engine operation.

Over time, glow plug nuts can be easily lost during servicing, corrode due to heat and moisture exposure, or suffer from stripped threads that result in a poor electrical connection. When this happens, the affected glow plug may not heat correctly, leading to difficult starting, rough idling, and excessive white smoke on cold start. Replacing a missing or damaged nut with a genuine Nissan part restores proper electrical contact and dependable glow system performance.

Manufactured to Nissan factory specifications, this genuine nut provides precise fitment, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability in harsh engine bay conditions. It is a direct replacement and installs easily with standard tools.
