Default Fox RC long glow plugs

Russian,
No, you certainly will not ruin your engine using fox plugs because they are slightly on the cold heat range. If you're using 15% fuel the fox plugs are extra insurance against preignition if you get a lean run. If you're using 5 or 10% fuel you probably won't get the max rpm that you'd get if you used some of the hotter plugs mentioned above. I still use some of these fox plugs and as long as the needles are set correctly I never have deadsticks using 10% fuel.
I'm refering to the fox rc long plugs as I've never used the miracle plug. I cut the idle bar off the fox plugs, but if you do that clean all the cuttings out of plug.

Happy Flying
