Default Twin engine glow driver........

I have a club member who just recently purchased a twin 160 ASP engine. My question is: does he need twin glow plug drivers for the remote glow driver plug or can he attach both plugs to one driver? Thanks

Default RE: Twin engine glow driver........

The standard way on an OS 160 twin is to wire the plugs in series and use a 3 volt source. A hot goes to one plug, the engine is a jumper, then out of the other plug back to the source. (I guess this is standard, it's the way mine was wired. You could run separate 1.5V wires in parallel from a battery of that voltage. Probably separate 1.5V batteries would be better.)
