Sportsman .15 glow plug options

I'm looking at a Sportsman, and I would like to know if the MECOA conversion head can be used on this engine before I try to make a deal. Thanks!

Well is the head for a .15?
If so then yes.

OK, that's what I was worried about.

The Sportsman is very user friendly engine. Easy to tune and use. Great engine for Magicain .15. Plenty of room for engine and tank. Also a lite weight engine.

There wqas a guy who use to drill and tap old plugs and use Standard glow plugs. I guess drilling and tapping 1/4/32 would be not to hard.
Sort plus are about $5.00-$6.00 maybe less if you find a good vendor. Or use Nelson threads and get a fine plug set-up.
