Hsp glow plug

[Ruthlesz]

Anyone using hsp glow plugs in their savage 5.9?

Have always used os 8 plugs & due to them doubling in price thought I would give hsp 3 plug a go which is supposed to be the same, so have one on order!
I know Gazzman used them & reckoned they were good for the money!

Thanks for the info. Where did you get yours and how much ?

Have you used it yet?

 

[guinnessdublin]

No have not received it yet & just added it to order, but Gazzman spoke highly of them!

I had the same problem Gazzman had with his HSP Glow plug. It would die without the ignitor. I bought the N4 instead of the N3.

I put the stock plug in and it ran way better and would idle. The HSP N4 would not hold idle without the glow plug...

So is the overall conclusion then that HSP plugs are junk & not worth using?

I recently tested these spark plugs and they are actually not that good, the gas engine runs at idle speed. Instead, try OS No6 spark plugs and it cannot be screwed into the F4.6v2.
I wonder if LRP spark plugs will fit the F4.6 engine?
