Weighing only a few ounces, it tucks neatly in your toolbox and engine cowling. You’ll notice crisper throttle response and more consistent fuel economy when every cylinder fires on cue. Outfitted with a high-density ceramic insulator and corrugated ribs to prevent flashover, this spark plug stands up to salt spray and vibration.

When it’s time for routine maintenance, torque each plug to 10.8–14.5 lb·ft (aluminum) or 10.8–18 lb·ft (cast iron) for a leak-free seal.
