Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0816673A1] A procedure for operating a flame starting system for a diesel engine uses a glow plug in the air induction channel, supplied with fuel. The fuel supply is metered according to the operating phase of the engine and is cycled using a chosen frequency or period. There is a solenoid valve in the plug to control the fuel flow. There is a buffer between the valve and the plug. The buffer is a fuel store. In front of or behind the valve are throttle screens.
