Replacing the glow plugs on a Kioti CK25 is pretty straightforward, but you want to be careful when removing them so you don’t snap one off.
First, disconnect the battery — you’re dealing with electrical components, and you don’t want any surprises. Then, locate the glow plugs, which are threaded into the cylinder head near the fuel injectors. You’ll need to remove the bus bar (power rail) that connects all the glow plugs together, which is usually held in place by small nuts.
Once that’s off, carefully unscrew the glow plugs using a deep socket (usually an 8mm or 10mm, depending on the model). If they’re stuck, don’t force them — spray a little penetrating oil and let it sit for a bit before trying again.
When installing the new glow plugs, hand-thread them first to avoid cross-threading, then snug them down to spec. Don’t overtighten; these are delicate and can snap if cranked too hard. Reinstall the power rail, reconnect the battery, and you’re good to go.
In any case, if you need more information on this job, the manual has it covered. It has step-by-step instructions, clear images, and exploded-view illustrations so you can conduct glow plugs replacement properly according to the manufacturer's standard.
