Bosch W8AC are the go for me. I just noticed yesterday when I was changing the plug on the splitty that the new ones were german, as where the old ones were made in India?

Gap is 0.028"

I run NGK iridium, they go for ages, and don't foul up like the old bosch ones used to all the time.

I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!

CJ8 are the small tiny plugs used in VICTA mowers...
made by Champion:puke:puke:puke

I use Beru plugs.... they have been around since the 60s...

I have used German Bosch... but have heard of a lot of problems with the indian ones.... No Wonder !!!

NGK seem to be one of the Biggest sellers these days...

NipponDenso are used in Many New Japanese Vehicles as are NGK... both made in Japan...
