Greg, The spark plugs are all the same. They have 14mm threads that do not fill the usual 18mm sparkplug holes on aircraft engines. Thus, adapter bushings are used and some came out with the plug because the bottom thread of the plug had enough deposits to lock it onto the adapter. Other plugs came out alone and the adapter was removed separately. The pictures were taken before the plugs, adapters and gaskets were cleaned up.
