I have to get some new spark plugs to go out tomorrow morning.. Unfortunately my local boat parts shop and West Marine closed already, I only have auto parts stores and Walmart left open. Are boat spark plugs specific? Or can I walk into one of those stores and buy some? If so, which?

I have a 1994 Mercury Black Max 150

Thank you.

Are you asking which store to go to or which plug to get.

The motor calls for a NGK BU8H. No idea if a chain store would have them.

As this is a gap less plug, I've used a wire brush,starting fluid and compressed air to get me by.Or if home I used my plug cleaner.starting fluid to rinse then air to blow out and grit from threads ect. With my 150efi I just keep the set from the year before as a back up and go!

Most decent auto parts stores will carry them. They're used in a lot of Mercury outboards. I always buy mine at NAPA.
