New old stock plugs
« on: 06.09. 2017 14:25 »
I've been using these new old stock Lodge HF plugs for a year or so. I bought them on Ebay. I've cleaned them a few times on my bench grinders wire wheel; they seem to be happy about that. The bike goes well. I'm not sure if they're a correct plug for my machine but so far, so good!

If I recall correctly they were marketed as "Golden Lodge", supposed to give better ignition having four tabs in practice they generally just sparked on one tab, on the other hand I suppose there was a better chance of getting a spark with four times the options.
If they work for you stick with them
