What spark plugs are you guys running in your 16v engines? Particularly KR

As this is a non Aussie delivered engine, parts supplier in Oz are typically useless

I have taken the following different plugs out of KR Motors

Bosch : F6DTC
Champion : RC8VTYC4
BERU : BPR6ES
NGK : BCP6ET
NGK : BKR5EKUP

It probably doesnt matter that much, but just wondered what you lot are running.

I know the ones recommended for the ABA 2L engines are different. According to Repco, those ones are a marine plug. :confused:

F6DTC and BCP6ET are the most commonly used ones.

Bosch F6DTC. Just bought some of these as they were half the price of NGK.

We probably just made the decision harder because everyone's running something different :D

I couldn't get anything at repco, but I went to VW as a long shot, and they had some right there and then... NGK i believe...But i think they are 6's...
