Glow Starter will not stay on glow plug
Does anyone have a fix for glow starters that will not stay on the plug after cranking (Saito 100s). One is a Hangar 9 Mighty Mite and the other is a Hobbico NiCD. I just need a fix until a new one arrives, thanks

RE: Glow Starter will not stay on glow plug
if it's a spring loaded clamp-on, you can grab the clamp/prong/things that actually hold the plug with a pair of pliers and bend them in (toward where the glow plug would be). There is usually three of these prongs made out of thin metal. I've had to do this a few times with mine.
