O'Donnell Turbo glow plugs
Hey guys,
when I was racing in the States, the O'Donnell turbo plugs were the plugs to have.
Very high quality and very durable.
Now, I never see them mentioned here when plugs are discussed.
Have these plugs changed? Aren't they good anymore, or why is nobody running them?
With the current "glow plug confusion" I thought I'd give 'em a try again, but they are not easy to get here.
So, before I buy a bunch of them, I would like to hear your opinions.
Thx.

I would say the 97t is more of a 6, and the 99t is more of an 8.

i threw an OD plug in my 353'09 on the weekend for the first time and the thing ran like clockwork
i put a 99T in thinking it would be more like a nova 7
are you sure that the OD plugs are that cold?
i was running the OD plugs in offroad and was using the 99T in place of an RB7 plug there
can someone link me to the older thread about these plugs as im really interested.
i have been using the OD plugs in offroad for ages because of the lack of life span in the RB/Nova plugs
the thing i dont understand is what is the difference between onroad and offroad plugs
if you go to amain hobbies the 77T is listed as a 1/10 plug, the 97T is listed as a 1/8 offroad plug and the 99T is listed as a 1/8 onroad plug
that doesnt make much sence to me

Die 97T ist für 1:10 und die 99T für 1:8.
