NGK DCPR8EKC Spark Plug – Stock No. 7168
The NGK DCPR8EKC is a durable, twin-ground spark plug designed for clean, reliable ignition. It uses a projected tip and a resistor to reduce radio noise and deliver a stable spark. The colder NGK heat range 8 helps manage higher temperatures in performance or hard-worked engines.
This plug will not add power on its own, but it helps your engine start easily, idle smoothly, and maintain performance and fuel economy. It is widely used in many motorcycles and small-capacity engines that specify a 12 mm, gasket-seat plug with a 19 mm reach and a 16 mm hex.
