This high-quality glow plug is installed directly into the cylinder head of the engine, with its heating element positioned to warm the pre-combustion chamber. It acts as a vital heating element, essential for starting your TD42 diesel engine, particularly from cold. By heating the air and fuel mixture, it ensures efficient and reliable combustion when you turn the key.
You may need to replace your glow plugs if you are experiencing symptoms like difficulty starting, rough idling on a cold engine, or excessive white smoke from the exhaust upon startup. These are common signs that one or more glow plugs have failed and are no longer heating the cylinders effectively.
This listing is for 1 INDIVIDUAL GLOW PLUG (sets of 6 are also available in our online store)
