I came across the OS G5 glow plug a while ago and did some research. basically its to run a spark-ignition gas engine without an ignition system. this got me wondering if there would be any practicality to converting a 1/2a (specifically cox) engine to gas power via this plug.
what's your thoughts?

But...
the OS GGT series use gasoline as fuel and the g5 plug as the ignition source...

Wel a cant stop tinking of try Somting y have dud glow plug one y have wit used engines melted coil so tink of try make plug adapter wit y tink its posible y changes Reed valve for steel one used old type fuel tank wit the circlip valve retainer change fuel tube inside now y dont se wy this wouldn’t work? Is no reason To not work y have test nitro in 2stroke cr 250r dirt bike mix gaz wit nitro in m'y test found its posible To get the chemical bond réaction i use klotz nitro wit colinol after aded klotz nitro the gaz look clear clean ratio of fuel To gaz its was start of 50 50 mix nitro To gasoline use les octane posible just winter regular 87 octane in winter Most gasoline in Canada aded aditive for the water To mix litle so gaz Not freeze in Line tink methyl hidrate ? Not sur y use gaz Line antifreeze litle y used klotz tecniplate tink? cant remember y was 20 at that time now 36 old y stil have m'y 250r 1981 bike To get it To start without braking m'y legs wit kick starter retarded the timing after m'y first run of that setup y just cant handle the new rpm curve To mutch power very dangerous if its posible To mix right fuel wit sort of alcool just help the glow plug To work stay glowing on low rpm i wil soon test just Not the time for it now y se on YouTube nitro cars using gasoline mixed wit nitro wit that hase color wite Not mix correct and working som sort so y tink its posible cox engine work wit correct mix update soon litle vidéo if work This Site Rocks!

I have got my g5 plug
a cox wants to start
but it just cant
it stops after 2 sec (looks like it floods)
but if I lean it out nothing happens
also when it tries and I remove the glow plug it keeps trying to start for over 20 sec
so if it were to start it would work
maybe my compression is not high enough

I am gonna try a 4 stroke engine next
(after my glow driver if fully charged (I had to stop because it was empty)

these plugs dont like nitro or methanol
they just dont wanna fire with it
they do like 2 stroke gas (I used 1:50)

my 4 stroke ran great on it
until my timing skipped

that is whay to little oil
if your nitro has 20% oil
your fuel wlll only have 10%

a corectly converted engine
will run on normal 2 stroke mix
and adding extra's changes the run profile

with my experiments on gasoline a cox needs its needle 1/3 turns open
and the same engine needs 2.5 turns on nitro

Never use 2stroke oil that is Not made To mix wit alcools nitro gaz use like wit ipone and klotz benol castor oil dont use oil contaning détergent no thecniplate oil no 100% sintetique oil just pur castor oil its Not Good the engine tink wil run hot and dont mix like normal gaz engine dont count oil in nitro fuel is les than 10% of the mix after 50 50 gaz To nitro fuel just use it like is no oil after mix use like 1\3 of the mix oil 50ml nitro 50 ml gaz 50 ml oil plus aditive for the cemical réaction like 3 table spoon of the clotz nitro kl_600 sur that tink is chance To work no spi sub piston induction or presure from tuned pipe gaz is Not stable like nitro wit heat and sparks
