Hi, i'm having aproblem with my savage engine. It ran fine yesterday, but today it keeps stalling if i remove the glow plug igniter. While the igniter is attatched it runs fine, but the second i remove it about 15 secs after it stalls. I tried 3 different plugs (all used but one was from my running RS4) and had the same problems. I assume it to still be a glow plug issu since it runs when the igniter is attatched but since its happened with 3 plugs i'm not so sure anymore. If anyone with more experience can help me figure out what this is i'd appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

The glow plug was fine. Turns out the low end was too rich. I leaned it out some and it seems to be running fine now. Just gotta get a temp gun this weekend and make sure i didnt lean it too much.
