Now this may be a dumb question, but here goes. You run diesel engines and all they need is compression to start. Would it be possible to use diesel fuel in a glow engine with a glow plug. I know that a normal engine would not have enough compression to fire, but if a glow plug were to be used it should be able to fire at lower compression. Has anyone ever tried it or even toyed with this idea?

Thanks for any info or ideas you might have.
