Default 1/8 buggy question

Hi everyone! I just purchased an ofna ultra lx comp buggy. I was wondering if anyone knows how many shims you need to install on the glow plug. The glow plug comes
with 2 shims. I am going to use 20% fuel. thanks

Should just be 1 washer on your glow plug. It is just there to seal aroung the plug, as far as I know. I have only ever used one on all of my cars.

Thanks! I was just curious because the glow plug came with 2. I'm guessing this is for tuning purposes.

The ofna plugs come with 2 because your supost to change that copper gasket after everytime you take the glow plug out so they give you an extra. I always used the same copper gasket when I take out my plug and had no problems so just use one gasket and keep the 2nd if you loose the first one.
