Thanks,
There are so many options. I am certain I am overthinking this. |

A Bosch 5 is different from a NGK 5.

7832 crosses to a bp5es or bosch W8D.
that's a pretty hot plug to start with.

I just realized that. The numbers are confusing. It is a plug that EBS sells for these engines. Also, the 78-79 can run with a hotter plug.
I think I need a 7 rating for an EKG. Last edited by jamesjedi; 10-17-2018 at 04:38 AM.. |

Thanks for the help.
I will be returning the “hot” plugs and have ordered NGK-BR7EIX-(6664). This would be equivilant to Bosch 5. |
