Default RE: Glow Plug

Just don't suspect, test instead.

Besides ChuckW's advice, mixture on the rich end keeps plugs healthy, while mixture on the lean end kills them fast.

Listen for a noticeable drop in the iddle rpm's of the engine when you retire the ignitor; that's a sure sign of plug going bad.
