fantom fr .12
hello,
i just purchased an fantom fr .12 engine for my losi xxxnt.
was just wanting to know what the better GLOW PUG for that engine.
i took the one out that came with it but it does not say anything or have any numbers on it.i compared it to a o.s.#8 but looks to be a little longer than a 8.i have always used to use cvr's in my truck but decided to go with a little more kick!!
so any info you might have for me leave a note.
thx,
matt

is it the one with the turbo head? if so then any turbo plug for 1/10th off-road will be fine.

Well Morris it should be easy to see the difference. A turbo plug is tapered at the end by the filament and a standard plug is straight and threaded all the way down.
The 05 FR12 could be either Side Exhaust or Rear Exhaust and the stock head button is a turbo for both. Fantom offers an optional standard plug button for extra cost.
However, it sounds like you have an older engine as I do which doesn't use a head button and does use a standard plug.
