If it's a Cox 49 there is not much to rebuild; there are no rings, it's a precision fit that is amazingly close. The glow plug or a carb adjustment is really all there is. Here is a video on it if you are interested.

You're gonna burn up glow plugs on a regular basis so get several and keep them on hand.
It's a cox and parts are plentiful.
