Glow plugs are a commonly replaced item on the Holden Colorado RG. They are imperative to ensuring your 2.8TD Duramax engine can start in cool conditions such as the morning. They work by being powered up by an electrical current causing the element tip to glow and heat up the engine’s cylinder prior to starting.

Signs that you need to replace your glow plugs are,

• Engine is taking longer to start than usual
• Engine starts with white smoke from low cylinder temperatures and poor ignition
• The tips have worn down or worn off

NGK provides the gold standard in aftermarket quality,

• Optimum starting capabilities and excellent post-glow function
• Manufactured with state of the art techniques with dedication to quality, and outstanding reliability

Function of the glow plugs,

• In cold weather, the optimum running temperature is not always achieved and glow plugs assist by heating the air-fuel mixture to assist in cold starting
• Process before the actual starting of the engine is called ‘pre-glowing’
