I continue to use only Champion plugs in my Healeys but have experienced at
least two episodes of plug problems over the years. Based on the number of
miles covered that is probably not too bad, but the second time was with a
newly installed set of plugs. One was defective. 

Both times the symptoms were intermittent missing both at idle and on the
highway.  Finally changing plugs was of course one of the last things I did.

I have never had a spark plug let me down. Has anyone on the list ever had
an issue that could be attributed to a spark plug? Using the incorrect spark
plug for the application does not count, nor does failing to change plugs
when required. Both of those are attributed to the failure of the person
responsible for maintenance.

Seems like a sacrelige to use Japanese plugs in a British machine.
Especially since the 240 Z buried the British sports car market in the '70s.

 

I have always used Champion UN12Y plugs as specified for the BJ8, and never
had a problem even though Champion had some bad press about their
manufacturing.  Of course I use regular points, so maybe there is not as
much demand on my plugs. Hank

Good Afternoon All
I've been using NGK spark plugs , BP6 ES. In my 67 BJ8 with electronic
ignition. I just went to my local parts store and I was told they can't get
them anymore.
What else is everyone using with success?
Thank You , Don Day 67 BJ8
