I would suggest Bosch or NGK. IIRC the gap measures 0.028 if you are running a stock Bosch CDI, if you use an MSD, I think the gap needs to be close to double the above value.

From Bosch USA site I got this:



and Paul posted this:



What Bosch suggests is an "8" plug , part number 4018 ( WR 8 DP) which I am using now. Why the discrepancy?
Should we use WR 8 or WR 3 for day-to-day street driving?
