I have been using NGK BPR6ES gapped at .030" also running Allison electronic
ignition for the last 5 years. No problem!!

Hi,



time to replace the plugs in my '69 MGB.  I called a couple of places today

and they said 'Resistor or non-resistor plugs?'.  Um, how can I find out

which are suitable?  The ones I have in mind are the NGK BP6ES (stock code

7333), which are non-resistive, but only because this is pencilled into the

handbook the DPO gave me (so needs verification).  Actually Peter Burgess

recommends this part too, and NGK recommend it on their website, but they

also list a BPR6ES, which has a resistor (this from

http://ngksparkplugs.com).  Also Burgess recommends a gap of 0.022", but NGK

recommend 0.025".  Haynes recommends some nominal range rather than a

specific measure.  I am running Allison electronic ignition, but the car is

running v. rough, so the plugs are the next troubleshooting stop.



Resistor or no, and what gap please?



Andy
