T.C. 3.5 engine?????

[googlechef]

I am helping my friend out by fixing his rc car... it is a hand-me-down and he doesn't know anything about it, brand model type etc.... I need a new button head insert (the piece that sits on top of the piston that the spark plug screws into). Any one who knows where to find the parts please let me know.

Its a glow plug. Do you mean the cooling head? This piece? http://www.traxxas.com/products/nitro/maxx/maxx_imgs/5237-TRX25R-head.jpg

I'm thinking he is referring to an engine that has the removable insert where the glow plug screws into. Some manufacturers use this method so that when someone screws up and strips the threads with a glow plug, they just replace this lil fitting instead of the whole head.

Do you have any pictures of the engine? That will help greatly with figuring out which part you will need. Try to get a good clear close up of any discriminating marks (such as letters on the side of the engine block or writing on the cooling head).

no that is not the piece..... it looks like this .......... http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/8922.....

What kind of motor is it cause every head button is not the same different combustion chambers....for differnet motors

If you don't know the manufacturer, model... maybe post up some clear pics of it and we can help figure it out.
