Spark Plugs

Post by PhilB »

Hi everyone my name is Phil and I have recently bought a 1935 Daimler e20, it is in need of some tlc. I am sure I will have plenty of questions over the coming months and years. But the first one is which spark plugs do I need. NGK seem to be highly recommended on the forum and those equivalent to those in the Daimler parts manual are B6HS or B6ES I think the difference is length. Can anyone help ?

Hi Phil
Forgive us all for our lack of response, but welcome and I hope that you enjoy your new acquisition. I think that possibly the major reason that there hasn`t been response to your question is that the subject of spark plugs has been thrashed to death on the Forum over the years - but I think mainly on the old forum. See if you can get on that and search for spark plugs.
Cheers
