Default Glow plug Question?

My Losi XXX-NT Sport hould be coming in sometime this week. I hear that during the break in process a lot of glow plugs go bad. What sort of glow plugs should I buy? They have cold, Racing, Hot, etc.

For the break in a Hot plug would be best, for the sole reason you'll be running the engine on the rich side. If you run a cold plug you'll have to lean it out more to keep it running than if you run a hotter plug.

Once the egine is broken in, I suggest a med. to hot plug when running 20% like a McCoy mc8 or mc59, (OS#8 or OS A5 If you engine runs short plugs)

I run mc59 on 20% and they work great, During break ins too.
