Default RE: different engine types

BTW, the term "glow fuel" sorta came from the fact that our model engines that ran on alcohol needed glow plugs to run.

And our first model engines actually did run on gas and use small spark plugs. But modeling quickly switched to glow fuel. And during the switch over back then, modelers had the same problem with their terms.
