Thought I put the wrong spark plugs in

Featured Replies

But they were the same as the ones already in NGK ZFR5PG WITH 0.8mm gap 

but my manual is saying. For a BKY engine to use NGK BKUR 6ET-10 with 1.00 mm gap

thanks all

Any help is appreciated 

NGK codes are easy to understand:

B means 14x1.25 thread size

K means 3/8" hex

U means surface discharge

R means resistor

6 is the heat range rating

E means 3/4" reach

T means triple ground electrodes 

10 means 1.0 mm gap.

Why are they not the ones originally in the engine or the ones the motor parts gave me for service

what does NGKZFR5PG mean?

is my engine a 1.2? But says everywhere else it is engine code BKY 1.4

really confusing maybe the book is wrong

The plug you fitted was a bog standard single electrode type, these don't last very well but they're cheap, the triple electrode type is an upgrade and will last much longer.

Know them ones 😅 

nothing to worry about then, crisis averted any helpful tips on more upgrades or general overhaul while I’m in there?

There is more than one plug which will work just fine with your engine, I thought the BKY was a 1.2 3 cylinder engine, not a 1.4 4 cylinder engine. Do you need 3 spark plugs or 4?

Yes, crisis averted.

 

It's not a racing engine so plug choice is really not critical.

Cams, throttle body, exhaust, mapping. May be some other things.

It wouldn't fit, the TT is a Golf and the Fabia is a Polo.

Tell the idiot to learn how to use a tape measure.
