RE: gas fuel with glo plug no ignition
Hi,
It's no problem to do so, except that if you are going to run anything but Gas, or our Gas/Glow fuel mix, the carb may not flow enough fuel. There is one number Walbro carb that will flow enough regular glow or methanol/oil without modifications, but I don't know the number. RCIGN1 knows the number if you contact him.
If you don't want to make your own adapter, KenLambert is working on converting the Super Tiger 2300 to gas, and might sell you a carb adapter.
Just remember, whatever fuel mix you decide to run, the engine will need the same amount of oil as originally specified unless it has been modified with roller bearings on the rod. The Gas/Glow mix we use does not have enough oil for an unmodified Super Tiger.
With a Walbro or Zama carb, you will not need muffler pressure and your tank position will be non-critical as the carbs have a built in pump. I have had problems with Zama carbs "not liking" alcohol, so be careful about that...
