International 234 Glow Plug Question

[warment]

My father has an International 234 tractor with "K3B 30318" on the engine valve cover.

That being said, I am trying to determine what glow plugs this engine uses. The Mitsu part doc that I have state that the K3B engine is used for one of the following models:

K3B 61A For Industrial Use (STD Model)
K3B 61ES For mini power SHOVEL
K3B 61PA For ANI-perkins
K3B 61SA For sailing boat
K3B 61SG For generator set

Later in the doc, it contains the following 2 parts listed for glow plugs:

MM401621 PLUG, glow (12V NGK Y-110) Except 61ES, WH
MM409510 PLUG, glow (12V NGK Y-114) For 61ES, WH

So then, which part number is used? I assume that since the tractor is not a "mini power shovel" that "MM401621 PLUG, glow (12V NGK Y-110) Except 61ES, WH" is what I need???

The K3B uses the same glow plug as my 244s K3D. The International part # is 1273118C1. Of course Case/IH no longer has that part available. However a search for that part # gets you here: Glow Plug | Allis Chalmers 5020,5030,6140 | Case 410,420,420CT | Case IH D25,D29,D33,D35,D40,D45,DX18E,DX21,DX24E,DX25,DX29 | 72097517 | 1273118C1 | 87542790 | 87542790 | 2401-8201-00 | 1273118C1 | 5698-251-1978-0 | 15231-65512 | 3280558M1 | SBA18536. Looks like All States AG Parts has them for $14.40. I would suggest you get an account on caseih.com. It allows you to look up parts for your 234.

I finally got around to removing and checking the glow plugs. All of them heated up properly when I tested them. Those things sure were in there tight. I assume they have been in there since day one. I put a little anti-seize on the threads when I reinstalled.
