Can anyone tell me the diff between these three plugs. (see pic)
I was going to order some and noticed the same plug W/three diff titles. From what I understand they are all conical so what is STD. 1. STD 2. Conical 3. Plus |

I know GRP makes a weird plug where the element actually sticks out of the plug. Maybe that is the plus version. Not sure.

i think the pics is wrong and the 3 same plug
ciao gianni A friend says the plugs are all conical but the plus version is for winter type racing weather rain/snow. After talking to him I went back to the sight and noticed the STD version which then brought up more questions thats why I asked here. I know it's probably not a big deal just like to be informed and don't want the wrong thing. http://www.rc-toro.com/index.php/cPath/5 |

Not sure if I will buy but the place where I can get the Sirio plugs is out of stock and there only 6.75. But I still wondered after seeing this at Toro. If you check the GRP site and look at there product information, you can read about the difference.... http://www.grpgandini.com/images/uk/...owplugline.jpg |
I have a question to, are this number the engine temperature you need or the outside temperature {weather}??
4 hot 5 medium 6 cold 7 very cold Because in florida most peoples use #6 and #7 hot temperature!!! |
the temp you run has alot to do with engine size, nitro % in the fuel, and temperature outside.
it can be 80 out but if you run 30% nitro in a .21 you might want to run a slightly colder plug. |

My old nitro car used standard plugs so they were pretty easy #8 long. Thanks for replying. |
Anybody else tried out the 'Plus' plugs? I ordered a set, but that extra exposed filament makes the plug just a tad longer than the regular turbo plug. Just a slight worry about the piston hitting that. I doubt that it would (can't see GRP getting a patent on a plug that will destroy your motor), and I ran one last weekend with no problem (at least once I got the carb straightened out, which was another issue entirely).

The element would have to stick out more than 8 or 9 mm to hit the piston. Remember the plug sits way up at the top of a domed combustion chamber. It's no where near the piston.
