Squee,

Do you have a Revo 3.3 or a T-Maxx 3.3?

[squeeforever]

Revo. I just got the 3.3 a week ago to replace the old 2.5R.

[JOHNNYMAXXIMA]

Procharged, did I read your sig correctly? Did you replace your Revo's 3.3 with an OS .15?

[squeeforever]

Johnny, I believe it says he has a 3.3 Revo and a T-Maxx with a O.S.

[Procharged5.0]

Nope. The REVO 3.3 is only a couple weeks old and has about 7 tanks run thru it.

The OS MAX CR-V .15 is in the T-Maxx which is for sale.

good info guys thanks!

I wish I could get that many runs on one plug with my 24.7. That stupid thing has so much compression that I'm changing a plug every 15 tanks or so.

[Mike.L]

1 every 15 tanks your going to have to purchse a whole shoebox full of glow plugs to last you a year! lol. Is your motor new or used and broken in?

[squeeforever]

Camel, maybe try a colder plug?

What does the plug look like when it dies? My plugs are hit or miss depending on the tune of the engine. Too lean or too rich is a sure fire way to kill a plug. I've had a plugs last a half gallon of fuel, while another last only half a tank.

It's usually running the engine on the lean side that will cause the plug to go (in my experiance anyway). When it does, it's usually the little coil wire inside that burns up. Similar to a light bulb going bad.

[squeeforever]

Yup, I had one that desintedgrated the coil. The coil fell out in my hand...Glad it didn't fall into the engine..

On my 3.3, it lasted almost a gallon before the origional plug went south. I'm using an OS LC3 now and its a great plug
