I also asked with what fuel, this is very important when selecting a glow plug. Not sure the OP knew to ask.

The slide valve carb shown is a great design as it does NOT result in a plenum around the spray bar as the throttle in closes. I seem to recall it also has an accelerator pump function (I may be in error about that).
