Ford Excursion Glow Plug
The Glow Plug in Ford Excursion vehicles plays an important role of enabling the diesel engines to start if at all start in cold station this is due to the fact that diesel engines require high compression to ignite fuel. These are pencil shaped heaters that warm the chamber or pre chamber to ensure the formation of a hot place forth ignited the fuel injected. This is a crucial process that will help to provide the wanted level of reliability of the engine in low temperatures. Ford Excursion models utilize two types of glow plugs: in-cylinder and in-manifold (Thermostart) Several kinds of the SI engines are illustrated below Fig.1: In Cylinder glow plugs are fitted in every cylinder, The Thermostart system has one glow plug for every cylinder. This makes contemporary Ford Excursion glow plug systems to have features for automating the pre-heating procedure which may take 2 to 5 seconds to heat contrary to up to 20 seconds on older models of Falcon engines or even the Apply Truck engines. Further, they use tough and efficient elements such as platinum and Iridium in building of the products.

Ford Excursion Glow Plug Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: What is the general information about glow plugs and their replacement procedures on Ford Excursion?A:The glow plugs are designed for quick heating once voltage is applied; the end heat; the purpose of pre-chamber is to warm the air before compressing it. When fuel is being injected it is done under this heat causing it to ignite and in turn being forced into the cylinder for a second burn. To prevent the circuit from overheating, a cycling device is incorporated in the circuit. When a glow plug tip is missing or damaged it can mean incorrect fuel quality whereas, if the lip is distorted then it shows that the plug has been activated for longer than usual. The PCM controls the glow plug relay on-off times and consists of eight glow plugs, a relay, the PCM, an engine oil temperature sensor and a barometric pressure sensor controlling the glow duration with reference to oil temperature and barometric pressure respectively. In the instrument cluster, the WAIT TO START lamp lights up when the glow plugs are ready for the starting of the engine and lights up when the ignition is on and engine temperature is below 165 degrees F. The glow plug relay turns on the glow plugs and gets a signal from the PCM, and the type of relay system varies depending on the Federal or California standard vehicles. The federal models incorporate a single relay that is positioned close to the fuel filter, and the Californian models incorporate a glow plug module that is capable of monitoring the functions of individual glow plugs, although diagnostics of these are available only via the scan tool. The wiring harness of the car is equipped with two replaceable fusible links per glow plug bank. For replacement, the valve cover has to be pulled out to access the glow plugs, and these are removed and checked for damage before being reinstalled. Subject to 6.0L and 6.4L engines, there is a suggestion to use a special tool to dismantle the wiring from the glow plugs safely. The glow plug relay can be replaced by removing the negative battery terminal and electrical connectors, unscrewing the nuts of the relay then reinstalling the new relay by reversing the process.
