Best Glow Plug for OS XM

[Danny Cruz]

Hi guys, what glow plug would be the best to run an OS XM on a VS1 with either of the grim props, fully stock (except for one missing head shim). Oh, on mostly 30% fuel.

Mine LOVES Mccoy MC59's or K&B 1L's.

Sweet. Thanks for the update. My Tower shopping cart is just about to get processed. That's one of the last things I needed to add. -Danny

I use 1Ls in all my boats

Well, I'll keep all those in mind. Since the order I'm making is from Tower, I added 4 of the MC59 Tim suggested and 3 OS #8 just to try them out.

Purple O'Donnell plugs IMO with a Grimracer 40/52 prop all the way.

You can order the plugs directly from O'ODonnell.

Mine tends to vapourize OS 8's

they work fine until you start to get the motor screaming

then they only last a few runs

My OS has had the same OD 77 in it for a year

An entire year with the same plug. Holy crap. Now that's economic! I'm going to have to order some of those.

Danny, Duratrax LR3 is another great plug that I have been told about here recently. I go through plugs like candy.
