Introduction
In diesel engines a build-up of combustion residues or carbonisation occurs very frequently around the
element of the glow plug. Sometimes this can causes the element to stick in the cylinder head, which in turn
leads to a heat build-up.
Contamination can enter the glow plug hole which also leads to problems such as corrosion, especially
around the thread of the glow plug as well as the rest of the hole.
Why should the glow plug hole be cleaned in the cylinder head?
During the installation of a new glow plug, carbon remains in the bottom part of the glow plug hole, which
causes the element to break, this then prevents it from being screwed in.
The glow plug shaft should be cleaned when replacing the glow plugs, otherwise carbon deposits cause an
accumulated heat build-up in the new glow plug, which leads to overheating.
It is also important to regain an optimal seal. This is done by reaming the sealing cone with an
appropriate reamer.
