I own a ST but the necessities are about the same.
Get a rechargable metered glow starter. It lasts longer and will tell you if you have a bad glow plug. Go to
http://www.usd.edu/~cgutzman/evader/ and follow the servo saver fix at the beginning of the page. You do it right away it will save you a headache in the long run. I did the fix 4 months ago and still on the same servo gears. Replace the black ball cups with some from RPM. When breaking in the engine, dont go below 2 turns on the HSN.
