Hello m8s
Today after an oil and filter change I realiced that the sparks were for the GA engine(Champrio ones rcc9 etc...)The new ones are BKR5EY-11.Are the correct ones.
With the previous ones I didn't notice any problems.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you wouldnt, a spark plug is a spark plug, once it fits you really shouldnt have a problem, they all ignite the petrol!!!

Yes but then why Nissan gives different codes for the GA and the SR engines?Besides the previous sparks were a little bit shorter than the new ones!
Many thanks for your interest!

Thats bad advice dude.
Deffo got yo have the right plugs. For example if you put a plug in that is to long but the same thread pitch you could have the pistions hitting the plug, which aint good.

if you have a plug that is too hot, or too cold, you can either burn the plug out, or the valves, or both... eitherway not good. and an incorrectly gapped one could cause even more ignition faults.
car makers don't spend millions, and i mean millions developing engines, then nip down to halfords an buy the first plugs they see, only to find they burn out withing 5000 miles. Austin Rover used to do that, and look what happened to them. |
