    just curious what you guys think about some of these plugs, ran them last year and just now checked them,,they are ngkyr5 , I had put ngk 7s in and they seemed to cold so I went back to these just to see what it looked like (heat range),, but some of the plugs look rich and some look lean to...

    This is a semi stupid question but I like the ngk plugs, some of you recommended using the ngk 7 which seems pretty good but I have not taken it to the lake yet but runs great on the trailer, my only concern is that the ngk plugs are shorter (where the plug wire boot snaps on) than ac delco...

    Have always ran the AC Delco R43T plugs. Now Autozone says they are unavailable now. They have a R43TS that has an extended tip (the post and electrode stick out about 1/16" further than the R43T) The rest of the plug is identical in geometry/dimensions. I'm running a small dome 10:1 piston...

    Just checked the plugs after the first time on the water with new motor. Here's what I saw ... the plugs range between between these two. Thoughts?

    Im still having the issue I posted about earlier with a hot spark then it dwindles or doesn't spark at all. Question, has anyone ever diagnosed a bad coil wire that prevented the engine from firing? I can get one or two cylinders to fire but it just cranks after that. Ive replaced the batteries...

    Hey guys just signed up finally, lots of great info here. I've got a 70 Sanger 17-10 with a merc 454 with 427 heads, tunnel ram with two holleys and a vertex mag. It's got autolight 404 spark plugs in it now and I want to put new plugs. What are good plugs to use. I'm not a fan of autolights.
