Model Engine Company of America

The heart of any good running engine is the glow plug.
K&B and FUJI glow plugs give your engine a low idle, smooth throttle transition and peak high end performance.

ALL OUR PLUGS HAVE SOLID PLATINUM/RHODIUM ALLOY WIRE
Welded at both ends so they wont shake loose.

Just a little tech note... The torque to tighten Glow Plugs should be 20 to 24 inch pounds.

DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE IN PLATINUM AND RHODIUM
GLOW PLUG PRICES MAY CHANGE ABRUPTLY.

Our wire cost for the 7310 plug as of 2-26-2008 $4083.00 per oz

This is just for the wire on a spool, not coiled or anything.
In 2000 our cost was around $500.00 per oz
