Glow plugs!!!!!!!
Hello all!!!! 
Im just wondering what everyone is using for glow plugs. Im runnin an XTM.18, with 30% nitro. I've been using hot plugs( Mccoy 59, Traxxas hot). My engine won't run for more than 2 seconds with a cooler plug, but have started to notice that the hot plugs burn out when my engine gets over 210 degrees F. [&:] And that is when my engines starts to run good and perform well!! Im not sure what to do!!! Weather going to a heavy duty plug, or is there a hot plug out there that will stand high temps. and not burn out too quickly.[
] I would appreciate any feedback at all!!! Thanx!!!!! Dave.

RE: Glow plugs!!!!!!!
have you tried the traxxas 3232?
Right now I'm running a 3231, and i'll prolly get a couple 3232's or so when I go back to a LHS.
I'm using the TRX2.5r engine.
