Long reach glow plugs

[Mike lasorsa]

Who makes long reach plugs? K&b plugs do not last at all

 

[Al Hobbs]

Steve O'Donnell and Rossi make good glow plugs. The K&B HP plugs are good unless you run lean.

Long reach plugs are just regular plugs. K&B used to make short reach for a shallow head button they made. Long reach can be used on those with 2 plugs washers.

If your blowing plugs the set up is off. K&B makes great plugs.

I’ve had brand new ones not work. I have some that will last a season or last 5 min

 

[Danny King]

I haven’t had any of that with K&B.

That’s what I’m using. I have a old
Idle bar plug from the 90s that will last forever in them. K&b plugs are also very expensive $20 a pop

 

[Grimracer]

Then you are lean or have an air leak

I might have a few idle bar plugs if you need some

We've purchased brand new O'Donnell plugs where 1-2 of them were dead right out of package.
Haven't run much since COVID, but Al's Rossi plugs have treated me well, this far.

What engines are you using and what nitro ccontent fuel?

K&b 3.5s and now I’m running 40 I was using 50

 

[Al Hobbs]

The Rossi R4 at $4.00 per glow plug should work fine for you.

Make certain you don't have an air leak and start with a slightly rich needle setting.
