Can a diesel engine start with no spark?

Can a diesel engine start with no spark?

Actually, you never ever want to use starting fluid on a diesel. Since a diesel uses a constant heating element (glow plugs or a heating grill on cummins), there is no way to control the ignition. On a gas motor, spark is variable and only one cylinder will fire at a time.

Why does my Nissan club have no spark?

It has no spark, the tack does not move. We changed the crank sensor, and no change. My scanner said that it should have 5 vdc on one pin of the connector and that the sensor should ohm out at 165 to 200 ohms. When I tested the plug I had 12 vdc and the sensor reads open across all the pins. Did you rebuild the motor? did it die when driving.

Why is there no spark in my ignition?

An ignition module requires some type of external input in order to activate. If your vehicle stalls unexpectedly during operation and will not start again, it is likely because of loose or corroded electrical connections in the ignition module. In this case, check the switch, clean oxidized terminals, and replace broken wires if necessary.
