Has anyone had any experience with the splitfire plugs? What about the
Bosch 4 prong plug? The idea makes sense, but I know people who's cars have
run worse with them. Have only a few friends who have had a positive
experience with them. How 'bout y'all?
IMHO, I just prefer a good ol' NGK or Nippondenso.
Cheers!

While trying to get the bike running well I had the oppurtunity to research other brands of spark plugs, that cross from the NGK part number. I thought this info may be useful if at anytime you can't find NGK plugs as seems everyone uses. Here are the numbers: Split Fire SF426C, Champion 813, Nipondensco 385, and Autolite 4252. I could only locate the autolites and they seem to be working well, after another round of carb adjusting new plugs factory preset positions, I adjusted the right side in until the bike started running rough then back 1/4 smoothed the running, then did the left side the same. I put about six miles on the bike checked the plug color, right was just turning tan left was a little darker thus I adjusted in another 1/4 turn bike still seems to run smooth. I have noticed that the exhuast smell that was predominant before is now gone, was stinking the garage and me up :-) Any way I will be putting some more miles on it and keeping a good check on the plug color. Looks like I will be on the road as the weather has been in the 70's here it really sucked wrenching and not riding.
