DESCRIPTION
A Preheater Resistor, identified by Part Number 68813, is an electrical component used in diesel engines to aid in cold weather starting. It is installed in the engine's air intake system and works by heating the incoming air to a higher temperature before it reaches the engine. This helps to reduce the viscosity of the fuel and allows for easier combustion during cold weather conditions. The Preheater Resistor is typically made up of a ceramic core with a coiled wire wrapped around it, which generates heat when an electrical current is passed through it. Its resistance can be adjusted by varying its size or length, depending on the specific application requirements.
