Re: Spark Plugs



 Correct Spark plugs are much more important than we may realize. "If
it fits the hole- use 'em!"   Heat range is very important. If you
Google "spark plud heat range"you will find some very good articles.
Mopar Muscle has a good one explaining reading your plugs and
selecting the correct range.
   Basically , to hot a plug will keep your plugs clean but leads to
detonition wich then  leads to serious engine danage Such as welding
specks of aluminum piston  to the plug insulator and dieseling.  Cold
plugs will allow for more advance, but will not self clean as well.
Useing Nitrous or turbo- blower boost will require a significant
change in heat range from the stock recommendations. Check it

Please address private email -- email of interest to only one person -- directly to that person. That is, email your parts/car transactions and negotiations, as well as other personal messages, only to the intended recipient. Do not just press "reply" and send your email to everyone using the general '62-'65 Clubhouse public email address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine-tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
