Enforcer plug paddock

Model Airplane News, Mar 1998 by Chianelli, Chris

To me, a glow plug is a vital component for dependable glow-engine operation. It's the first thing I check if I'm having a problem. Why, then, did I abuse my poor glow plugs by letting them roll around on the floor of my flight box for so many years? A glow plug that has been "tarred and feathered" with balsa dust and part "B" of the emergencyrepair epoxy just can't be operating at 100 percent ...

I don't think so! I'm truly a contender for the "Heavyweight Dunce" world title when you consider I run mostly 4-strokes and the plugs cost about $10 a pop. Enforcer Mfg.'s new Plug Paddock guards your plugs' delicate elements, keeps them all in one easy-to-find place and protects your investment-not just the $10 investment in the plug, but also the cost of an entire airplane that could well be lost in a crash because of a dead-stick engine caused by a mistreated glow plug. I almost forgot! The back of each threaded hole is shielded with clear plastic, so without removing it, you can conveniently light the plug to see whether it glows properly. The white areas can be marked with a pencil so that you'll quickly be able to identify your plugs by manufacturer and heat range. In my opinion, here's a totally cool product for only $6.95. Available direct from Warehouse Hobbies, 1180 C.R. 621 East, Lake Placid, FL 33852; (888) 444-1995; Florida residents (941) 6991231; fax (941) 699-0360.
