spark plugs for 172's

[Big Bob]

Whats the best spark plug to use for the 172's and what is the gapping that they need to be at before i fit em ?

 

[DrR]

best is standard from what i can gather on here.

The std ngk pfr6e-10(i think) are the std plugs and the best to use really.

 

[Big Bob]

where can i get the standard ones from ?

Any motor factors or renault, halfords don't stock them. However from renault they are about £50-£70 so ebay is your best bet.

mmm interesting the ones that came out where well more than that an easy 2.5 -3mm i would reccon the old ones must have been gapped at

 

[BRUN]

they are a pre set gap of 1mm, hence the -10 in the part number, dont try and mess with the gap

yours is turbo'd you shouldn't be running standard plugs, or standard heat grade, or standard gaps for that matter
