OS A5 all the way.

I'm no expert, but they seem like the 'ole faithful of glow plugs though...

I've only ever really tried Rossi, and the OS are noticeably better(more consistent running, last longer, etc..) I now have a bunch of McCoys Mc8's, some RB's, and a few others, but don't WANT to try them.. That's how much I believe in the OS A5....

(right or wrong..)

My Dynamite plugs work great, better than my OS 8 did. Don't know the model, sorry.

I'm pretty sure with most plugs you can get different lengths.
