Faster heat up

16 April 2013  

Two Advanced NGK glow plugs have been released which can be used within the service of thousands of current models from Fiat, Volvo, Peugeot and Citroen. Both are the Advanced Quick Glow System type, which have a heater tube with a much smaller diameter, so they can reach 1,000 ºC in less than two seconds. The Y9001AS is used as original equipment in Fiat models using the manufacturer’s SDE 1.3 Multijet Euro 5 diesel engine – including the Fiat 500, Grande Punto and Doblo as well as the Alfa Romeo MiTo. It can also be used in the Citroen Nemo 1.3 HDi 75, Ford Ka 1.3 and Peugeot Bipper. The second plug is available for more than 40 models within the Volvo range, suitable for the C30 2.4, C70 2.0, and the 2.4 version of the S60, V70 and XC90 models.
