E3 spark plugs

[pbillyi69]

has anyone tried the E3 spark plugs in their saws? I wasnt able to get an ngk at the hardware store that is a stihl dealer unless i got a whole kit of stuff that i didnt need. so i got one to try and so far it has been working out, but i dont run my saws every day. Just curious.

Ive never used one, had a couple saws i worked on that had them in there, swapped out for ngk. dont usually get down for gimmicks, which is how i view those plugs. Maybe they are sweet, and im sure they work, but just not for me.

i wouldnt have bought it if i didnt need it at the time. i was more shocked that they didnt have the ngks at a stihl dealer

I have heard the ground electrodes are weak and prone to breaking. Not a good situation in a saw. Again, just hearsay, but I won't use them.

I’ve repaired three saws with broken off E3 electrodes, all were bone stock saws. No reason to avoid NGK for me so I’ll keep using them! Don’t want a cylinder like this…

I’ve been taught that a spark is a spark.

Anything else is pretty much a gimmick.

I find that NGK to be very good spark plugs for 2 strokes, especially snowmobiles.

this is exactly what i wanted to hear i wont run that saw again until i get a proper plug

I run ngk in everything. Back when I worked at Hutter, we ran ngk in everything n/a, boosted and nitrous. Them fellas dyno tested everything and anything to get first hand knowledge. As far as plugs, ngk was it

Only plug I’ve ever had fail was an ngk. Probably because it’s all I run. One out of all those is pretty good odds for me. I buy ngk.

Had an electrode drop in a Champion plug.

I have had a couple brand new ngks not work over the last 5 years or so. But never had one or seen one create a catastrophic failure. Lookin forward to tryin some denso plugs from @cuinrearview

i have had several champion plugs go bad after only short use in my vanguard 18hp engine. i usually only buy ngk any more but like i said all i could get at the time was that e3 plug.

I'm keeping my eye out for a 10mm cmr6h equivalent.

No more "nippon". They dropped that over 20 years ago.

Good morning, I run w22mp-u Denso plug in all my older saws. And new saws is w22mpr-u resitor plug. Nerver had a fail on Denso plugs. I have been looking after the smaller plug With 10mm. But I havent find any, maybe Denso dont make any.

 

[cuinrearview]

maybe Denso dont make any.

Nope
