Can I ask the gentlemen who started this thread why he wants to convert a
glow engine to ignition. I guess gasoline is considerably cheaper than model
airplane fuel. But when you look what you have to do to convert to gas it
wasn't cost effective for me. Clarence Lee the engine guru in rcm magazine
wrote in one of his columns "That most model engines will lose some power
converting to gas ignition.
just a thought.
