Glow plugs aren't exactly cheap and I don't think I have had a buggy running long enough, well tuned, to find out how long they actually last.
Break in the last buggy I think I blew two in the first 5 tanks. Then I blew another 2 when the buggy was running too hot. In it's final throughs this winter it blew another 2 in as many fuel tanks (running too hot).
My Picco has also popped 2 plugs during break in.
Am assuming this is normal, but when the buggy is well broken in and tuned to not overheat that plugs should last, what?, 4 or 5 tanks?
Not sure about you guys, but for OS No.8's I'm paying like £5-6 each!
