RE: glow plug wrench
I have an HPI I have had for 5 years and still holds the glow plug fine but I did buy another one that is longer as with the X style engine guard and LCG chassis makes it easer getting the plug in and out. Have not had the Dubro long but is working fine for now.

Did not find one that was magnetic but a little lesson in proper terms of what I think he was talking about. Nut Driver

Yes this is one of many.

All so if you get a NUT DRIVE from sears make sure it is magnetic or you still have the problem of the plug being held.

RE: glow plug wrench
I don't like that whole storing the glowplugs in the wrench thing. Seems like an easy way to get dirt in your engine if you aren't careful.

RE: glow plug wrench
I use a nut driver too, but not a magnetic one as I set the plug in and get the threads started with hemostats first. always if you can give a good shot of compressed air before you pull your plug.

RE: glow plug wrench
Yes I all ways give mine a shot of air before removing to make sure dirt does not get down in the engine. Good reminder for all. I even have a small air compressor I take to the track with me and unless there is a long heat I blow off around my fuel tank cap before refueling.
