RE: OS .46 LA Surging Problems

Thanks JimmyJames. I checked my glowplug and I was wondering how you can tell if it's in good condition or not. Does the coil have to light up all the way to the end if it's good?

RE: Best P-47 Kit in the 12-20 lbs. Range

So it looks like the 30cc will work in any 1.20 to 1.50 size plane. It seems like there is a limited number of kits for the P-47 in this range though. What about a P-51? Would they have more kits in...
