I'm runnign a turbo plug, I tried to take the plug out and connect it with the glow plug ignitor, the plug wire didn't turn too bright but I'm not sure if turbo plug suppose to do that, I never used a turbo plug before. I'll try to play the low speed and see, thank!

MR-12 engines!
Also guys im getting a mtx-3 with mr-12 engine this week and was just curious as i've came across a auction at ebay where this guy also had a MR-12 engine and he claims that it was a MR-12 turbo 3 port. I was wondering if the MR-12 is a non-turbo engine or turbo or do they come in both formats?
For the non-turbo MR-12 engines what plug suits them best accord to OS plugs ? or whats novarossi 6 plugs equivelant to OS #?
Thanks guys

It good to hear that your also getting a mtx-3, I just got mine a couple day ago from Eddiethefish auction on Ebay. I gave the car a little throttle today, damn that things is fast!

only alkaline batteries are 1.5 volts, nicd or nimh are 1.25, trinity makes a nice pack for 20, a 3, 2 hump 800 mah suited perfectly for the mtx3, i got that one. 1,25 x 5 gives the 6 volts.
