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"

BERU BERU BERU BERU NGK NGK NGK


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...
