Default RE: glow plug ??

Well, Here is one good report. I used one. Just one all summer long. do you remember in the glow days, there was always one fellow on the line tweaking, tweaking and more tweaking his engine. that type never kept a relieable engine running. Now I know, there are prob some turbines out there that will not like this plug. But, I set my voltage low and work from there and left it alone. I bought two of them and I'v never opened the second one up. I had one failure after another on the Reg. plugs that you have to tweak. I glowed mine up before I picked them and used a dental explorer to do the pull out. Sometimes one would last 4/5 starts. But for my turbine all problems ended with the dura plug. So, If you have not tried one, you might find that your turbine might like them. Good luck with whatever you find and let us know what worked. There are better ways to do a start as mentioned but all i have is a glow start right now.
