Why does a Diesel engine not use a spark plug?
A diesel engine works by compressing its fuel (which raises its temperature). When it has been compressed to a certain point its temperature is raised sufficiently for it to ignite by itself, without the need of an external spark.

Why do you plug in diesel engine?
The "plug" powers an coolant heater. A diesel engine starts easier if the engine is warm.
How does a diesel engine add fuel to the compress air and it is ignited?
Diesel engine doesn't have spark plug as like petrol engine . But It has an atomizer (A plug through which fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber).... During Intake Stroke ,the vacuum caused by piston draws air (only) into the cylinder ,Now during Compression stroke Atomizer comes to play ,Spraying Diesel into the cylinder meanwhile the piston compresses the air, so that it's temperature rises to such extent that diesel could be ignited by the heated air, and there comes the power stroke and so on... So ,Conclusion is that Diesel Engine doesn't use spark plug, but the increase in temperature of air during compression is enough to ignited the diesel.. Hope You Got The Answer

Do you need to plug in a diesel engine?
diesel need not have a spark plug to ignite, just high compression will heat it up since its density is higher than of normal petrol or gasoline. gasoline having a lower density needs can't heat up well after compression and thus needs a spark to ignite it. You may need to plug in the block heater depending on the outside temperature Some older trucks need to be plugged in if the temperature is near freezing.
