1.6 Xu5ja Ngk Spark Plugs

[shed_racing 0]

Evening all - this should be an easy one; Read a lot of posts re. spark plugs, and whilst I can't seem to get Bosch anymore, the weapon of choice appears to be NGK.

 

As a direct replacement the NGK site is all tricksy when cross referencing Champion and Bosch to NGK, giving different results . . .

 

So, is it answer A;

BCPRE6

or answer B;

BCP7ES

 

Opinions seem to differ - I assume there a difference in the temp range . . . votes will be counted around midnight and the judges decision is final, Votes made after midnight will not be counted, although you may be charged.

 

Thanks guys.

BCP6ES for the 1.6 GTI & BCP7ES for the 1.9 GTI.

 

Thats what I've always used anyway & yes there is a diffrent temp rating between the two.

Hi Graham - thanks for the reply.

 

I went out and checked last night, and I'm currently running the correct 6's . . . . I also noticed that taking them straight out of the box and putting them in doesn't make for ideal running: the gap was only about 0.65, not the specified 0.8 oops.

 

Seems to run a whole load better with the correct gap for some reason - can't imagine why it was stuttering ?!

 

Thanks again.
