Spark plugs for 4AGE 16V

[ctan13]

Hi All,

The manual recommends to use NGK BCPR6EY-11 or ND Q20R-U11 spark plugs for the 4AGE - but I can't seem to find these in the market here. Anyone knows what are their closest equivalents or I can go for any type, as long as the gap is correct?

BKPR6EP-11 or anything close ,11 stands for gap lo.
Or iridium IK20 would be good.

I've been using NGK BKR6E-GP spark plug. Remember our 16v engine plug gap for the spark plug is 0.8mm while 20v is 1.1mm. Don't tembak me because i still remember sifu Acoustic @ Chin told me about this one :D

Is it true? In the manual it is stated 1.1 woh...
U're using G-power is it? How long have u been using? Did it last?

If its just normal 4AGE 10.5:1 N/A compression, I think cheap-cheap plugs is enuff.

Those NGK dunno what model RM16 / 4 pcs oledi can use, no need fancy smancy expensive plugs.

Hi all,
Thanks for all the replies.

KE2020,
What advantage(s) would you have in using Iridium plugs? How much are they? Pls share share.

 

[KE2020]

Iridium needs lower voltage to create sparks, and long lasting . Need more info go to their website to check out.

Yeah mike is correct. Most 16v engines should use heat range 6 for spark plugs. I have tried (rare) 7 and the (bad) 5 from NGK. Not good. Still 6 is the best.

What mike tries to say about the feeling is, like the engine no power, and response is weaker. Also notice knocking is sometimes more apparent. Should happen for EFI engines, but it does because of incorrect heat range.

I do recall Chin saying 11 (gap) for 20v and 6 (heat range) for 16v. Here is 1 NGK sample,

Hope this helps. But for many of us, just a refresher course. hahahaha.
