RE: Glow plug temps
your plug should be fine. however, your temp guage will not measure plug temps. all it will do is measure engine heat. by itself, the plug will not get that hot. you choose the plug tempurature when you buy them. on 30% with a four stroke, an os #F plug should be fine. on a four stroke, you should never need to go cooler plug unless you are having pre-ignition problems.
