[Vwdiesel] Glow plug relay

[Dave Cook]

Yeah, I think the continuous ones are what I'd use too.  There are also momentary solenoids, and with longer than brief (a couple seconds with the starter) use you can burn them out.

I have no experience with the above vendor but you should be able to 
find similar relays at other vendors.

The local jobbers can't seem to function without an actual part number...
