Abstract
A glow plug (10, 150, 170, 190, 250) is provided for use in a model engine 12 and for connecting to a glow plug clip (30). The glow plug (10, 150, 170, 190, 250) includes a coil (38) having spaced apart first and second ends (42, 44), a first conductor (34) coupled to the first end (42) of the coil (38), and a second conductor (40) coupled to the second end (44) of the coil (38). The second conductor (40) includes a body and a glow plug clip-retaining portion (32, 152, 172, 192, 252) and the glow plug clip-retaining portion is defined by an indentation (70, 72, 176, 196, 256) in the body.
