I got a Sumacher Rascal the other day. After running it in it goes though a glow plug with each tank of fuel it runs. Any ideas y its doing this.
Thanks

You may want to ask this question in the general, mini forum, I have never driven a Rascal, so I do not have an answer for you on that one.

You may be running it too lean though...

what's the plug look like after you remove it? Gunked up or dark and burnt?

Its quite clean as it doesnt have time to pick up much junk. Everything looks fine on it, but the thin strand of wire at the base, the glowwy bit, has a dark patch on it where its burnt out. But part from tht its quite clean, slighty dark/burnt looking though.
