Rossi 1S Glow Plugs?
« on: December 17, 2021, 12:15:34 PM »
Digging in boxes I came across a bunch of Rossi 1S Glow Plugs?  I have a bunch, NIB, actually placed in little nylon "containers" with a cap.

I couldn't find any real information on line, but I do have some I would part with for those who could use them. I have more plugs than I'll need for the limited flying I do.

I'd like to price them fairly.

Anyone know anything about these plugs? Value?

Rossi glow plugs get colder as the number goes up so your #1 plugs would be their hottest plug.
I'll take a picture of the back of a Rossi plug package and post it here....it will show all the ranges.

Dave,

Yes, I know they are hot plugs, we ran them in 60 and 61 engines. I ran them in a Rossi 45, a power house but heavy.

I went on line looking for pricing? I also have other plugs which are loose.

I have plenty so I can let some go reasonably priced. I'll get a photo up.

2nd hand equipment rule of thumb, half the price of new minus how bad you want to sell it / what model people want to pay plus make it worth your while to ship it = $4 a plug.

Is the thread length .185" or does the S mean short plug. Do they all have idle bars?

I believe they are all long plugs with idle bars. See photo in the Classifieds. I have no idea what the "S" stands for? "Stunt hanger?"  ;D
