Default Re: Glow plugs

But why have you had to replace them so often? There is a problem some place in the system if this is the case. And if a mechanic said they need to be changed every so XXXXX amount of miles he is lieing and you should stop listening to his advise.

And glow plugs are not like a choke, they warm up the combustion chamber so that the compression stoke will compress the fuel enough for it to be ignited when starting.

How long does your glowplug wait light stay on?
