An engine i have coming ( Team Orion 5 port .21 CRF ) Uses a turbo plug, can i use a normal glow plug in its place? i will be using 20%.


would i need to change the button at all?
 
No. The end of a turbo plug is tapered in order to give it a tight seal. The head button matches it. This is why they don't need the washer.
