GLOWPLUG IGNITER
Commercialy available handy
glowplug heater in which the
glowplug battery and battery
leads are integrated.
FUEL
Generally, it is suggested that the user selects a fuel
that is commercially available for model two-stroke
engines and contains 10-30% nitromethane. As a
starting point, we recommend a fuel containing 20%
nitromethane, changing to a fuel containing more
nitro if necessary. When the brand of fuel is changed,
or the nitro content increased, it is advisable to
repeat the running-in procedure referred to in the
RUNNING-IN paragraphs. Please note that with
high-nitro fuels, although power may
be increased for competition purposes,
glowplug elements do not last as long
and engine life will be shortened.
