Which device preheats the combustion chamber of a diesel?

  • A.A heater plug in the inlet manifold only
  • B.An intake air heater, which warms the whole of the charge and is used in place of glow plugs on some engines
  • C.A glow plug
  • D.A spark plug, which ignites the fuel directly and is fitted to a diesel engine solely for the purpose of starting

Answer: C

A glow plug heats a small region of the combustion chamber so the compressed charge reaches ignition temperature from cold. Grid heaters in the intake genuinely serve the same purpose on many larger engines, which makes the last option a real alternative. Naming what changes and what stays the same is the reliable route through questions of this shape. Checking which component actually carries the load settles most questions of this kind at once. Working one numerical case through both cases side by side fixes the distinction better than any rule of thumb.
