Glow plug help pleast!!!

[MGT3.0NooB]

I see that there are several types of glowplugs out there: cold, med, hot, etc.... which one do I wanna run with my MMGT 3.0? What are the deciding factors for this? Thanks, and any help is appreciated I wanna get my truck up and running!!!!

In general,smaller engine and/or lower nitro content fuel = hotter plug. And conversely bigger engines and higher nitro = cooler plugs. I run McCoy plugs,in your case if you have 20% nitro or less I'd try the MC59 first. If you have different brand plugs,that's a fairly hot plug. You can search and find a cross reference for other brands.

Thanks for the response! Apparently the glow plug question is beat to death, and I fulllly understand how annoying some noobs can be when first joining, that is why I beat the search function to death....

I wasted a lot of time reading threads, and never found hardly any of the info you just told me. THANKS!

I run McCoy plugs and I think they are great, the #59 is a good choice for 20%. If your going to run 30% you could try the #8 as well.

okay-- so, if I run a extra hot glow plug, I could run a lower % of nitro? would it be worth it? could it really save me money?
