NGK B8ES plugs

#1 PostAuthor: rick-chuck » Sat Sep 12, 2020 10:27 pm

Went to purchase a new set of plugs for the Z1B. B8ES of course. What was given to me was BR8ES. I told the man I wanted B8ES and he said NGK quit making them and the R's are the replacement. I'm running Dyna S ignition with 3 ohm coils. Does anyone forsee any problems with these resistor sparkies? Cheers, Rick

Do you have resistor plug caps? You only one want one resistor, either plug or cap, or none at all.
