CARNAGE FROM HELL Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi guys, just bought a kyosho inferno mp 7.5, but it goes through glow plugs like mad and I dont really know what is causing it. I've checked the tuning, etc but can't figure out why. Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cactus Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 It's crazy how people think their glow plugs are dead. In over 17 years running intros daily I've never had a glow plug die. My Savage 21 has the original glow plug in it to this day and I bought that truck new when it was first released. Perhaps the plugs tou buy aren't of good quality? Where do you buy them from?

hamradioguy Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Most Glow Plugs go because they get too hot, even though you think the Carb is tuned well try running it richer, the Plug will run cooler then and might last longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack1 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Quite possible it is too lean a mix you have. I use os#8 plugs with 25% optifuel on my 1/10 nitro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
