palitan mo yung heater plug na modified.

[OTEP]

Baka nga glowplugs lang. :D An easy fix.

[lancelot]

Mine is a pajero BF 2.8L Ganun din ang problema.

Where can a get a modified heater plug? Is this the same as glow plug.

[OTEP]

I don't know about modified glowplugs/heater plugs (they are the same). But simply getting a new standard plug can already make a difference. I can start mine straight like a gas engine right now.

[AC]

ic po... meron po nito sa surplasan? san naman po pwede magpa modify? ndi ko po kasi alam ang glow/heat plug eh.. hehe

tnx po sa reps

[OTEP]

Mura lang ang glowplug. Consumable part din kasi ito. Bago na lang bilhin mo and apat na. Tago mo na lang yung present glowplugs mo as reserve (if they are still working)

You don't really have to modify it. They are supposed to work even in freezing temperatures sa ibang markets.

Ask mo na lng si GlennSter kung magkano ang GP sa kanila. Nasa profile naman niya ata ng number nila. Madali lang ito ikabit. Just like screwing in a sparkplug.

tnx po sir otep

you can get modified glow plug from mitsubishi dealer. This is what they use on old 4D56 engine.

OTEP,

Kailangan be orig na glow plug mitsu? 1,100 each daw against 650 yata pag ibang brand. Whats a good glow plug brand?

Also tagal na itong problema ng 2.8Gen2BF sa pag start. Yun 2.5 naman namin i click always. Never thought about the glow plugs thanks

[OTEP]

Minsanang investment lang naman po iyan. Go for the orig na. Pwede naman tawaran. :D

[promdiboy]

kakapalit ko lang glow plugs ng 4m40 two months ago. sa eldorado festival mall ko nabili. sabi nga nila 1th+ yung orig (imported). pero meron din daw orig na local. no stock daw yung imported. kaya local nalang nakuha ko. 500+ each yung glow plug. replaced all four., tinest ko yung luma patay na lahat.

minsan kasi pag kumuha ka ng mura, then hindi ka satisfied, doble tuloy gastos mo.

[lancelot]

DIY ba nag glowplug? Where is it located? Sandaling service lang ba ito?

[AC]

ano ba ang glow plug?? bakit ngayon ko lang yan narinig... ano po job nyan sa engine? tnx po...

[wildthing]

the diesel is combusted by compression (kaya malakas din ang compression sa piston chamber ng diesel than gas engines). And pressure is directly proportional sa temperature. So if the engine is cool or engine temp is low, the glow plug will heat up the chambers such that when you crank it the diesel will quickly reach its combustion point.

It's somesort of spark plug in gas engines. Although once you start the combustion process sa diesel engines you don't need any glow plug function anymore (kaya hindi rin ito nasisira agad unlike spark plugs which need to spark every cycle).

HTH

check also batteries

[AC]

ahhh.. ic po... parang heater lang po for starting tnx po sa infos

[bluesman68]

If you're changing your glow plugs, get the original na. I had a bad experience with using replacements with my previous adventure. Nag doble lang gastos ko. Pinalitan ko ng replacements then after two months bumigay na naman. Ang masakit kasi sa glow plugs, pag nasira ang isa, di na mag-i-start agad kotse mo. Eh hindi ka naman magpapalit ng isa lang kasi you want all of the four new para mas sigurado ka di ba.

Pati battery ko nasira dyan sa kaka-start.

AC, sa umaga you can also try to switch the ignition back to acc after the glow plug light goes off then back to on again and wait for the glow plug light to go off again. bale dalawang beses mo papainitin ang glow plug bago i-start ang engine. ito technique namin dati sa l200 ng uncle ko eh.

better get new ones na lang
