Default RE: Proper glow plugs

4 stroke engines use f type plugs. these are more expensive but the difference between them and 2 stroke plugs is that they have to maintain temperature through the dead cycle of the engine where as the 2 stroke fires every time the piston rises and the 4 stroke fires every second cycle. If you don't need them then don't spend the extra dollars.
