sufficient for the engine in cold condition for a clean start.
The open, hot wire filament delivers sufficient thermal
energy to the passing intake air to guarantee this in the
starting process and the warming-up phase. The warm air
is generated by the electrically operated systems.
The hot filament is held and stabilized by a ceramic support.

400W to 600W heat output.
At 12v that is up to 50 amps. Also the glow plugs on the 4jx1 are monitored by the computer for emissions reasons
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them

The glow plugs on a 4jx1 is far easier than a 4jb1 or 2jg2 engine, genuine are expensive but last far longer than aftermarket ones
