Ok so ive heard a handfull of times on different forums that too much advance will "melt" your glowplugs. Ive also been told by several people that this is very unlikely or strictly impossible. Personally, i dont see how timing affects glowplugs, you should be able to advance the engine to the point it will barely run, or to the other extreme and it shouldnt matter one bit to the GPs. I do realize that at different timing you will have hotter / cooler combustion and CC temps, but how exactly are those supposed to get hot enough to take out GPs.... Anyway, fact or fiction people, sate my cuiriosity
