glow plugs for revo?
my buddy just got his revo yesterday, been waiting for it to show up in the mail for 40 days! anyhow, the glow plug that came in the engine is toast after breaking in the engine, so i threw in an O.S. A3 plug, but the plug wire from the wire harness will not fit the plug. can i just jam a screw drive in the opening, or do can you only use traxxas plugs, or is there another very available brand that fits? thanks

Every brand will fit ther pretty much universal. But O.S. mad a plug specifficallyy for the Traxxas engines and I have been using it for a while and works great. It is called the [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXGPL6&P=7]LC3 Long Reach[/link]
it says T-Maxx but will work on all engines.

I had the same prob. I use a insulated aligator clip. When I first put it on I figured it would come off all the time and it hasnt come off once,been running it for 3 months.

What I did was I took the blue wire off and just bought a glow igniter. The battery in your easy start will also last longer because it dosen't have to ignite the glow plug. In my opinion its alot easier than using the blue wire. But if you want just take a needle nose pliers and grab the wire and put it on the glow plug. Hope this helps.

Is the chris chianella Q plug good as a T-maxx and Revo Replacment Plug and will the blue wire fit on it? I think EZ start should be called PLEEZ Start, but i'm just too lazy too take it off right now
