The Spark Plug Learning Curve


AK350Z

Recommended Posts

Well then! I could have saved myself a few quid and a lot of messing about had I checked a few things and the 350z-tech website!

 

I bought a set of Iridium sparkies of Nurrish a few weeks ago, thinking to swap mine for them. But after a lot of messing about wondering why the new plugs were a different size to ones that were in, I finally got to the bottom of the whole thing.

 

1) Nurrish has the VQ35DE (I think.) I have the VQ35HR.

 

2) A couple of changes were made between the two engines, not least of which were:

 

+ Iridium spark plugs

+ Spark plug modified into M12

 

:doh:

 

So not only did they apparently fit Iridiums as standard; (code FYE22HR11 on mine) but they made them smaller too! So really I needn't have bothered in the first place! :headhurt:

 

Lesson learned, check the specs next time!

 

Anyone need 6 Iridium plugs? Only been turned over a couple of times in a supercharged Zed... :lol:

I'll probably still get round to doing a guide for it though, I've probably taken enough photos, maybe save someone else the hassle.

definitely, even if there is already one its still good to have two and get different angles, approaches and descriptions
