WHERE ARE YOU BUYING YOUR FUEL AND GLOW PLUGS...?

Thanks for the bad news Ken...!!

I've got a good number of Nelson plugs and thanks to Kamtech enough Nelson plug adapters to keep my 1/2A engines running for years.
My Cyclon .061 and Zalp .15 are surprisingly very easy on plugs too.
The mass of the Nelson plug must have something to do with that...?
Well it sure does pay dividends as a runner of these engines  to use the lowest compression, lowest prop load and the least nitro that will get the job done.
Those aren't just my words...they were taught to me by Henry Nelson and Dave Shadel.
Otherwise keep guys like Nelson and  Shadel on "speed dial".

I've got some nitro due to arrive from Ritchie's Brew....so that little errand is taken care of.
What I need to explore now is the possibility of converting more of my favorite engines to using the Nelson glow plug.
I'd rather go "all in" with Nelson glow plugs than spend a King's Ransom" on standard Chinese 1/4-32 plugs.

Henry stopped making Nelson plugs. Now they're made in Italy. Bob Mears from Texas sells them on EBAY. You can also contact Bob direct if you frequent the MACA page or Facebook. MBS Model Supply also carries the Nelson style plugs but these are sourced from Bob as well. I've heard nothing but positive comments in regards to the Italian style Nelson plug.

Your not going to purchase a better fuel then Ritch's Brew. I just wished that Randy would answer his e-mails.

I bought a lifetime supply from an old hobby shop. the plugs had been sitting in a box in the back for 20 years, and thy still have the 20 year old price on them.

The N.O.S. Mark

The .049 glow heads can be had for $9.95 each SKU: 49000GH and a cap on regular shipping of $9.95, so if you order more than 1 plus any other item it gets spread out.
