One of the cleverest ideas we've seen in a long time is now available for you, if you're the owner of a stock Rotax 503 ("SmartPlugs: A Better Idea?" 09-07-00; "Smart Plugs In The Market: It's a Small Start For One of the Most-Important New Products in Engine Technology," 04-23-02, ANN).

SmartPlugs, which effectively turn your spark-ignition engine into a compression-ignition engine, without any sweating from you, has decided to make its breakthrough technology available, on line.

The recommended setup (especially for skeptics) is to run one set of your ignition on the SmartPlugs, and keep the spark ignition firing in the other hole in each cylinder. (Once you've tried running on just the SmartPlugs, you may consider using them for the whole thing.)

So far, only the Rotax 503 has been proofed out. Since SmartPlugs are engineered for only one configuration, it's not smart to use them in others. Just wait, though -- the 582's next.
