Default Re: Glo Bee's

The only Globee style plug that LiteMachines had that I'm aware of was for the norvel engine. This was a glo head and not a screw in type plug. So, if you stumble across any, buy 'em all and hold on tight. If you get some of the globee's, the center post is not supported, so fill the center with five minute epoxy and that will eliminate any breakage problems. If you don't do that the center post WILL break off after a few runs, rendering the plug almost useless. Rgds, Jeff.....
Thanks for the tip Jeff. I have a few old Globees left from the old days....guess I better use them wisely! They are a steel "head button" style plug with a screw on aluminum outer portion that clamps it down.
