NGK recommends glow plug replacement should be part of diesel vehicles’ winter service as they play an integral role in their economy and emissions’ performance. One of the main differences is that diesel engines rely on the high temperature created by the compressed air to ignite the fuel.

Diesel engines don’t have any spark plugs; they ignite “automatically”. In some cases, you can wipe off the carbon deposits and reinstall the old plugs. Make sure you lubricate the plug before reinserting it. The glow/engine management light will illuminate, performance of the vehicle will suffer, and worst case would be that consequential damage could result. The replacement process starts with removing the old glow plug from your vehicle. Using the right tools, your technician will first unplug your battery and remove the valve cover to reach your glow plugs. Once located, they will carefully disconnect the electrical wirings, unfasten them, and remove them from your engine. Glow Plug Replacement
