Have to change spark plugs this weekend. I went to 3 FLAP and none of them carry Bosch W7CC. They have the usual AC Deelco, NGK, champion etc. Are any of these any good or should I stick to the Bosch? If Bosch is the best bet, who has the best price and shipping?
Thanks |

Based on recommendation of John at aircooled.net I'm putting NGK BP6ET in a 4 cyl I'm working on. These are triple electrode

These are triple electrode Triple electrode is just marketing BS. If the basic plug is a decent one, they work fine. If the basic plug sucks, adding more electrodes won't make it suck less. (I'm looking at you Bosch +4 plugs!) There will only ever be one path that the spark takes. More electrodes serve as backup if the outer electrode gets fouled or damaged (if those happen the other outer electrodes will likely get it as well) and to shroud the flame front, reducing combustion quality slightly. The NGK plugs should be fine, basic or multi-electrode. Just don't pay any more for the multiple ones. --DD |
