When the air/fuel mixture in the cylinder is compressed its temperature rises to the point of ignition. Since the engine uses air temperature to cause ignition there is no need for a spark plug. When the engine block is cold the metal may absorb the heat generated by compression and prevent ignition. For this reason many diesel engines contain glow plugs. Glow plugs have a metal tip that transfers heat from a heating element to the cylinders. Once the cylinders are warm enough the glow plugs are switched off and the engine is able to start.
