1979 911E spark plugs?

What is the recommended plug for a 911E with MFI?

Thanks,

I can't comment on the heat range, but use the normal Copper Bosch ones with a single electrode.

You generally want the coldest plug that does not foul, which might need to be pretty hot with MFI if you drive mostly in the city.

NGK BPR6ES If you live in an extremely hot area of the U.S. you can go one cooler which would be a BPR7ES

I personally like the non copper plugs (platinum, iridium). Found my car runs and idles better.

MFI typically runs rich and a bigger spark helps.
