Default RE: os f plug

Hi,

The main advantage with a four stroke plug is it provides a more reliable idle, (like when you are landing) in inverted two stroke motors. With motors mounted vertically or on their side there isn't any real advantage. A four stroke plug is designed and manufactured to keep glowing between ignition strokes which in a four stroke, (if my maths is correct) are exactly half those of a two stroke.

Cheers,

Colin
