Glow plugs are used to warm the fuel mixture within the precombustion
chamber in a diesel engine. A glow plug is an electric resistance
wire within a small housing that is raised to a certain temperature
when the engine is started (or "cold"). The fuel plug gets the fuel
mixture up to the proper ignition temperature. Once the engine is
warmed up, the glow plug control senses the temperature difference
and turns off the glow plugs until they are needed again.
