Default Hyper 7 PBS starting problem...

Im doing this post for a friend, we are both frustrated. OK heres what we got: A hyper 7 PBS that is broken in and is about 3-4 weeks old. The car has been running up until this point. After break in we had much better luck and could start and run the car easily up and down the street. Here is wut happens now: After priming it we insert the glowstarter onto the glow plug. We pull it a couple of times and sometims it is loose and sometimes the engine gets running. If the engine does get running, it usually sputters and dies out as we give it some throttle. What could the problem be? The engine also goes out when we take out the glowstarter but that could be a coincidence because the glowplug is new. Could it be a simple problem?.....glowstarter doesnt have enough juice??? Please Help![]

Start with changing the plug, but before you throw it away put it in the glow starter and see if it glows a nice orange, if it does the plug is OK, if it does not it is no good.
