RE: gas fuel with glo plug no ignition
Remember that it is methanol that we want for glow operation. I tried ethanol, (E-85) but could not get it to work properly.
Having said that, OS engines has developed a glow engine that does run on ethanol. I don't know what their secret to getting it to work is, but they mention head changes and a special glow plug I believe.
Methanol is needed to make the glow plug work, (a catalytic reaction) in the engines we are working with. If anyone figures out how OS got ethanol to work, let me know...
