How much re glow plugs?

Have you considered T-Bone bumpers?

I am thinking of them, and only work out to about£16

Well i am in a dilemma. Mine is now in a perfect running state.
So ready to go!

The only thing i need to decide is.. Do i use it before the new bumpers arrive and risk breaking something.. or do i risk it for a chocolate biscuit!

We are newbies...
I presume a Roto is a roto start (thing from a drill?)
What the other thing

ahh sorry, yes, roto start back plate and the auto glow is a device where you push a button and the glow plug ignites for 20 seconds then cuts out. saves having to worry about wether the glow start is charged, downside is it uses the onboard batteries to power it. BUT i charge my hump pack every 2 to 3 weeks and all is good.

Whoooo just thought I'd let you all know that I managed to have a play on mine for a bit today!
The lads helped me get it running as we were Tunning it I lost a bolt out of the carb arm which ended my fun untill another guy racked though he box and found me one! I got the put on went to start the car and realised I'd left it on and the reciver pack had gone flat!!!!!
Can any one recommend a battery for my car?
It's now on charge ready to go out tomorrow!
