where can i get glow plugs fast and cheep!! i need them for this weekend and i dont want to buy them from my lhs because they are $12 for 2.
 
what brand and type plug are you looking to buy?
 
can't you put anybrand in as long as its what u need? well i need long with no idle bar and they never say what kind of heat range i think i put medium ones in usually.
 
well you can try a MC-9 its a medium plug
 
they were dynomite and traxxas they were both the same for 2. i told the guy straight up i cna get it off the internet for 3$ and he didnt say poop after that :hammer:
will this work for mine? works well for .21-.26 and in high nitro applications.
 
i run the OS #8 glow plugs that work great. in my wasp .18, i have a os #8 and it is still going even after the break in. u can get them at ur lhs, tower hobbies, stormer hobbies, just about any hobby shop or online hobby shop, very popular glow plug.

I feel your pain brother. I pay $5.50 a piece for my RB plugs. You're right, the internet prices are much lower, but what will shipping costs be and how much extra will you have to spend to get them here by the weekend (2 days)? If I'm in no hurry for a part I almost always got to the internet for my business. But when I need it like yesterday, I go to the LHS. Personally I would sacrifice spending a few extra on the LHS's plugs just so I could run this weekend.
 
I use O.s. or the Tower ones #8's in my maxx .15 pro. If ya order from tower they will be there in like 3 days. Tower has a special right now for 6 of them for $12.99. I just ordered 12 of them..he he!!
 
i need long, no idle bar, medium heat and i dont think they had any. i checked all around and they got them i think at rcboyz
 
At your hobby shop see if they will give you a discount of you get a certain number of them. You know, buy in bulk.
 
ya thats tru... but then again these guys def wont. they dont even give out receipts and get this they charged me 35 cents tax on a 6.99 after run oil!! something is screwy there!!
 
best deals I have seen are on EBAY. Try there.I get the MC-59 for 3.50. How about you?

whats bad about that? .07(7%) X $6.99 is .49. 49 cents and ur complaining about 35 cents? for me it would be 8.5% sales tax.

I guess I have it pretty good, I live right near the DE PA line so I make all my large purchases in DE
