Default engine temps

Hi All,

Got some questions regarding what the temperature range should be for glow engines? I worry about my engines over heating. I picked up a infared temp gauge today, but it does me no good if I don't know what temps I should be looking for.

1. Are the temp safety limits the same for all glow engines. 2 and 4 stoke?

2. Where on the engine should I be checking?

3. Should I check static on the ground or just after a flight?

Thanks for your help

Tom
