Chi Com Spark Plugs

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1741996989.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1741997031.jpg Months later I’m finally getting to this project. First owner gave up and put it on Craigslist. Cheap Chinese two stroke engine. I want to put in a shorter plug. Two auto parts stores and the chainsaw place can’t ID this thing. Any ideas? |
Why a shorter plug? NGK B6HS is similar but apparently has longer tip, could be a problem with piston clearance.
|
Maybe check with a chain saw shop?
|
Zero space. Had to pull the engine to get the damn plug out. This is a kids bike with a grown up size motor. First guy did a beautiful job on the paint, but ****ed up the drive sprocket and rear wheel. Then used the bigger hammer approach to making everything fit.

Already been to the stihl place. And the internet is disturbingly vague. |
Might have to go at this the hard way.
What thread is on the plug? Length of thread? Overall dimensions of the rest of the plug? |
Looks like the same plug type used in my 68 BMW R60/2 (short thread).
NGK B7HS. Worth a try. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1742009045.jpg |
No idea. But I am a serious fan of NGK. Only brand I buy.
|
I understand the desire to get it running, but then what? It looks like the kind of piece you hang on the wall and look at.
|
From what I can find the L8C is the equivalent of a NGK B6HS or Champion L82C.
From a motorized bicycle forum "NGK-BR6HS is the most widely used replacement plug for the Chinese crappy Z4C and the Z8C S/Ps." I'd swing by Lowes or Tractor supply with the one you have and compare it to what they offer in the small engine department. |

Eventually we’ll have grandkids. They’ll come up for the summer. The plan is to send them home after a few months with a bunch of new swear words and some scars. This is the scars part of the plan. I’m also pissed off that a bunch of things so simple, a bicycle and a crap two stroke motor, have combined to confuse me. I a m going to win this somehow. |

Thanks. This gets me moving again. |
You could always walk into an auto parts store where the old guy behind the counter would use his 40 years of experience and say "Oh I think I know exactly what you need, hold on for a minute while I go back and look around for it".
|
I do recall short spark plugs being used in 4 stroke lawnmowers with flat heads...maybe early Briggs Stratton stuff.
