Default OS "F"

This was recommended to me by Jim Gerrard - the original importer of the Moki engines. Works for me, although expensive.

I've also had the best luck with the O.S. "F" plug.

Diddo DMcquinn and 3daviator!!!

The glow plug acts as the timing, on larger glows go cold plugs, not hot, imho....

flyfalcons,

it sure might be, but if memory serves, i believe its cold to medium. i stand corrected if wrong. i've been told that cooler plugs are much better for larger glows and that the os type F is the one to use.

#8, Enya3, and Type F are great choices for large engines incl. OS160, large ST's, and Mokis. All are 'hot' plugs if I am not mistaken. I think the hot plug works better because there is more fuel to burn.

The OS F is the ONLY plug that runs in my 2.10. i have tried every other plug in the world, and the F is the only one that works.

i as also told by a guy that has had a miki 1.8 for many yars to run a K&b 1L. I broke mine in on it then put the new moki plug in that came with the motor. also use low nitro fuel and add about 4 ounces of benol to the gallon
