Turbo glow plug question

[Savage1124]

Hey everyone. I bought a Nitro TC3 with a Picco XP-12 turbo engine and I went to the hobby shop and got turbo glow plugs, but I forgot which kind i am supposed to use duing the break-in. Am I supposed to use cold, hot, or medium during the break-in.

Thanks

You should use the plug correct for your climate, humidity, and fuel you are using. I would recommend a cold plug for brake in. That would be a Black plug.

Rule of thumb if you mix up your plugs:

Darker color= cold because it doesn't reflect the heat.
gold to grey = medium
chrome or shiny= hot plug, reflects the heat.
