Default glow plug

might be kind of a stupid question, but can the glow plug make your engine run hotter or cooler than it should

Nah,

Temp of the glow plug dictiates when the fuel ignites, you want the right temp so it ignites the fuel at the right time so your engines runs super smooth,

Most engines comes with books that say what temp plug to run with what type of nitro content and how the head should be shimmed
