No. CRDI means Common Rail Diesel Injection. Its a new technology of injecting fuel to the cylinders at significantly higher pressures than the previous technologies.
The diesel engine will still works the same way. Ignition caused by injection of vaporised fuel when the air inside the cylinders are compressed (assisted by the heater plugs). The higher pressure used in the injection ensures a finer atomised spray resulting in a more efficient combustion.

CRDI engines does not have spark ignition.
CRDI is a technology by which fuel (diesel) is injected into the intake manifold/engine cylinder. The basics of diesel engine remains the same by which the injected diesel is ignited by engine compression. Spark ignition happens only in petrol engines.

If crdi is a diesel, no it does not. The ignition takes place by the pressure in the cylinder. It may use a glow plug just for starting.

no diesel engines require a spark or a fire. diesel fuel does need no ignition. the disiel is sprayed to the cylinder thru injectors in conventional as well as common rail direct injection (CRDI) engines. when the sprayed fumes are compressed they result in an explossion rather than a fire like in petrol engines. the explossion results in power.

Yes, but not from spark plugs, but by the diesel jet nozzel through compressed air in the cylinder which become very very hot, and spray from the nozzel produce a spark to push the piston down

not if its a diesel
