strange spark plugs

(1/2) > >>

Just changed the oil & filter on my P38 4.6 and decided to chuck in a new set of spark plugs since the originals have been in since it was shipped from Japan last year
The plugs that were in it were NGK BP5EVX which I have never heard of and they had a tiny pointed electrode tip
Using google, these plugs seem to be platinum tipped racing plugs for motorbikes ? - over a tenner each on ebay !
Anyone used these in a Rangie before and is there any advantage over normal (champion) plugs ?

IIRC the normal setup is BP6ES, or optionally the 5s?  Not heard of these ones.

Yeah - that rings a bell, just wondering why I have ended up with motorbike plugs in my Rangie  :?
It seemed to run fine with them in mind

If they're that expensive they MUST be good!  You could always replace them and keep them as spares.

Lets just say I have cleaned them and put them away carefully ! :wink:
