Can I use anything other than a RB plug?
When you say barely lights up are you referring to. plugging the plug into your glow igniter while it's out of the engine. If this is the case you may want to check your igniter. You may already know this but a glow plug does not get hotter after engine is started. However hot the igniter fires the plug at the start will be the heat while running. If your running the RB #6 that plug lights up very well and is perfect for your C6. The plug may be on it's last leg.
