Been using Champs in my 1987 1.6L SeaDrives for 12 years. I bought a set of NKGs once when there were no Champs available. I swapped them for Champs as soon as I got home.
So.....Walleyedhed... I take it you really really like Champion, eh? <br /><br />I shall pass the piston information along..... being that he is a diesel mechanic he might laugh at me..... or worse yet beat me up. Any specifics on why his precious NGK plugs will harm his engine? I tried to tell him.... just looked at me like I was crazy.
No, it's not just me....the OMC outboards like'em better.<br /><br />OMC ignition systems are built around the proper heat range and resistance charactoristics of champion plugs...NGK DOES NOT have an exact replacement, period.<br />Many people have laughed at this until they had to O/H and start replacing pistons, bearings, etc.
