I've rebuilt one igniter using Teflon and it works well--however that engine 
only "plays". The plugs go into a 2 cylinder Titan tractor. The engine is 
practically a 2 cylinder throttle and govenor engine---they actually 
marketed the engine for sale as a power unit.
 It runs hot--especially when you load it. I plan on having this tractor so 
it can work--not just look pretty. Some of the materials I plan on looking 
at are Garolite/G10 and  glassfilled delrin. I think the biggest issue is 
going to be between heat range and costing so much I could just buy more new 
plugs. Mica washers and tubes are definetly a cheap  way out--less than $10 
in material for each plug. I'll let you guys know how this turns out.
