Hello All,
Looked through the NGK and Bosch sparkplug application books today with this
being the results:
NGK Reg. Gold
Plat. Gap.
V700 BP7ES -
BP7EVX .028
stock no. 1034
7270
Ambo. B7HS -
B7HVX .028
stock no. 5110
7836
Eldo. BP6ES
BP6EV .025
stock no. 7333 7824
Note: These were recommendations only - you may have to go hotter or colder for
your particular bike. The local NAPA doesn't go by the alpha-numerical
description, only the stock no.
Bosch Silver Sport Super
V700 WR6DS (resistor) W6DC
Ambo.1/2" reach W5AS W5AC
3/4" " W5CS W5CC
Eldo. W7DSR (resistor) W7DC
Recommended gap for all is .025. I've used the W5CC in my '69 Ambo for the last
four years without any sparkplug related problems. Last time I purchased them
at Trak Auto for $.99 ea.
Just more sparkplug info. to confuse you! :-)

One thing to remember on the NGK is the lower the number the higher the heat range. Most other brands are the other way around. I believe the ambo's and V700's call for a BP7ES, but to me that seems a little cold, but it also depends on how you bike is set up. Jane & Karl Kologiski Bird at the Wheel - Motorcycle Arts- St. Petersburg, Florida Visit our web site at http://home1.gte.net/janemac/bird.html That is a different part number than I had I was using the BP7ES NGK part number. May be why I keep fouling them, I got the number from the Harper catalog.
