Best Spark Plug for the V6

Post by bongomike » Sun Oct 09, 2011 12:04 pm

Hello again Guys

Does anyone know what spark plugs give the best performance for a V6 Bongo, is there a certain code I need to quote for the plugs because when I go in all the motor shops here and ask for plugs for a Mazda Bongo I just get a the old line......I never seen one of those before if it's not a Holden we don't stock it........so frustrating.

cheers
Michael

Sparkies NGK are BKR5E-11 .... Desno sparky plugs K16PRU-11..

But a bit of useless information ...

ET Holden was a local leather Tanner / Currier here in Walsall .. he his buried in Ryecroft cemetery a few hundred meters from where I live ..

It was his Family who went to Oz to start making saddlery before branching into car manufacturing ..

cheers Cheffy, will probably do that, once again mate thanks for the offer of delivering them personally. The auto shops here are even more useless than Halfords the other day I took the rotor arm in a shop the guy spent about 15 minutes looking for it only for me to notice he was looking in the brakes product book #-o :shock:

Thanks for the info Mike and a little bit of history.....you learn something new every day (but that also pushes out old knowledge stored in your head)
