Glowplug rail info.....hopefully of help to others!

Hi there this is my first post!
Just thought I would give something back, considering the wealth of knowledge i've taken from this site!
Just went to change the glow plugs, after purchasing a set of 83mm NGK items, to find I had the longer plugs fitted (95 M reg)in the van....however after offering the rail up to the 83mm plugs it fits perfectly with no fouling on any other metal parts (metal fuel pipes or solenoid bracket) and with plenty of clearance as well.
So i'm assuming that mine may have been fitted with the 83mm rail??, although it had the longer plugs installed at the factory.
I hope this is of help to others.
Cheers
Martyn
