Default Which Glow Plug is This?

Glow plug looks like one for a 4-stroke since it has a long nose. Looks somewhat like an OS-F plug but has an "H" stamped on the side. Tried to take a picture but it's too small for the camera on my phone.

Probably a Hangar 9 Four Stroke Plug.

I bought a couple of them 10 years ago. A good copy of the an OS "F" plug.

As fiery says, it's a Hangar 9 plug, they called it the Super Plug, it's made by McCoy and is a pretty good plug.

I've never seen McCoy use a post on too like that. Looks like a relabeled OS plug.

The edit function isn't working, I meant that last post to say the 'stud on top' looks OSish.

Mabe it's an OS Wankle plug? The Wankle and the FS plug are different heat ranges.

It was called the 3011 and it has a gold post, the OS Wankel plug was very short compared to the plug pictured. The OS- f is about 1.5 threads shorter than the McCoy 3011 also.

I think that Evolution ships them in engines sometimes.

Barry, this 400s Saito plug used to be called the Saito SS plug, I think it is the most OS-f like of the bunch.

Dave, I have about a dozen of the Saito SS plugs like those. I bought a batch when they were a couple of dollars cheaper than F's. i can't tell much difference between them. Maybe that's a good thing since I don't see a need to tweak needles on 4 strokes going from either brand.

That's it. Thanks. I'll use it in my only 4-stroke, a Saito FA-100 when the current one dies.

Yes, I have had good luck using the H plug in Saito engines myself.
