The glow plug relay on my diesel Mercedes, an 83 300SD has two sets of
parallel contacts but only uses one because the other has a gap of about
0.035" when the first set closes. I thought this was due to improper
alignment and I bent the other arm so that both would make contact. The
other day I found another relay and noticed that it had one set of
contacts
spaced so they didn't close. Are there any experts out there that can
tell
why they do this? ...

No good reason. Are they bifurcated contacts?
