My son got an Estes rocket as a gift. We put it together last weekend and
would like to launch today but last night I noticed we are missing the plugs
that hold the igniter to the engine. They were there at one time, I looked
and looked but can not find them. The question is do I have to have that
exact plug or can I make one myself and expect it to work. I took a golf
tee and cut off the tip, about a quarter inch lone, the end that sticks into
the ground and right now am planning on using that with either a tiny bit of
glue or maybe tape to hold it somewhat secure. Is this a recipe for failure
or should this allow the engine to ignite?
