I also used a 32oz tank. I didn't use ignition or onboard glow system, to start it I just soldered up three of those remote glow drivers into one lead, then used a Hobbico 4500mah glow igniter to light all three plugs at the same time. Every now and then if you idle to long it will drop the bottom left cylinder, I never lost more than one cylinder though. To tell you how much torque that motor has , when I lost a cylinder just after take off, I was able to fly the pattern on the other two cylinders and at 32lbs I was a little nervous about a stall but the Byron Corsair with full flaps will almost fly itself in on final, loved that plane and wish I would have never sold it.
