But i suggest you use an Infared Heat Gun to check the temperatures around the glow plug, for a car they are apprx 230 farenheit?
This isn't an issue with airplanes.
Exactly. We have a slight advantage over cars when it comes to setting the mixture because we can run a plane engine full throttle for virtually as long as we like without doing any damage (lower revs and lots of airflow) but this can't be done with a car engine. Car engines are doing what we'd call a shaft run (prop breaks/flies off but engine keeps on running).
