This is recommended for Nitro engines.

Also, Maybe you can clean the glow plug off with a little nitro spray.

Be careful. Don't use the glow igniter right after. Let the glow plug dry

before igniting. If it doesn't work, get another glow plug.



Also, as some one said, clean out the excess ATF. I might stay away from

ATF in the engine.

I did turn it over on the starter box and excess came out. Even tried a new plug but that may have fouled too. If anything i think there would be nothing but fuel in it now. So maybe try another glow plug?
