Title: Sparkplugs
Post by: Dragonstaff on June 09, 2022, 09:21:31 PM
This may have been asked before, but the search function didn't find anything...

Which iridium plugs suit the 1300 best? I don't know if mine has them already, or how to tell, but if it doesn't then I want to fit a set.

I've got iridium plugs in my ST...

It's crazy but they are cheaper to get from the UK than to buy them in Oz.

The one's you need are CR7EIX...

This is the place I got them from: https://www.driven2automotive.com/shop/ngk-cr7eix-7385-spark-plug/ (https://www.driven2automotive.com/shop/ngk-cr7eix-7385-spark-plug/)

You need to be careful who you buy them from as there are apparently counterfeit plugs getting about.

A touch over 40 quid for 4 plugs which works out to be 70 odd dollars Aussie...and that includes postage.  :thumbs

Did a service today and pulled a plug to see what they were.

Iridium already fitted, which is good.
