filter solved (unshrouded plug ?)
Hi, Al....I have been using NGK BR9EQ
plugs. Then I tried some NGK B9EGV plugs, and I could not screw them all
the way into my engine with my Craftsman deep socket, because the length of
the plug left sticking out of the engine was still recessed partway into the
spark plug hole, and the socket kept slipping off the hex portion of the plug,
which would not allow me to tighten the plugs. Both plugs are identical
in length below the sealing washer....it's just that the height sticking out
of the engine is shorter on the B9EGV plugs than it is on the BR9EQ
plugs. I went to AutoZone, and they substituted an Autolite 2526
plug for the BR9EQ, and it measures the same as the BR9EQ plug, and I could
install it with a standard deep socket. Unfortunately, I don't
know what the R or the EQ stands for....just know they are much easier to
install. Perhaps someone can shed a little more light on this
subject. Thanks. Paul Conner

What are the make and number of the unshrouded
plugs??
TIA,
Bernie
I’m using NGK B9EGV for both leading and trailing;
recommended to me by Paul Yaw a few years ago.
Ed; just guessing, but I think that Paul Yaw link
you referenced is from about 1999.
There
were a couple of times during the dyno runs that the engine got very
flooded, but then started easily when we got the conditions
corrected.
