Title: some bright spark.
Post by: smith335 on April 30, 2006, 20:01:51

need to change the plugs on my 1984  2.25 petrol 90.
now the book says fit champion n12y.
on looking at whats in now i have champion n12yc.
does any one know the difference, and  would this affect the running of my landy?

the C should just mean it has a copper core and is a slightly better plug

thanks for that, its good to know what all the numbers mean,
so best sticking to the same plugs then, unless there are some better ones to use...any one know if theres any benefit using super fandango plugs in a old landy?

this might be useful it tells you what the numbers mean the better quality the plug the cleaner the spark is and burns the fuel better
