12 isn't too many, if you want to store them for a while. If you run your engine too lean, your going to need 24
What other plug should you use whn it's under 40 degrees?

I typically run Trinity 20% with McCoy 59 plug. I bought a gallon of the White Lightning 20% and will start running that with the McCoy 59 plug.
Anybody have experience with the White Lightning 20%?

I use an Enya #3 which is the heat equivalent to an OS#8. However, in my heli's, the Enya will far and away outlast my OS plugs so that is how I got into Enya plugs........I can get a few MONTHS out a glow plug in my helis.
