which denso plugs and gap please
 
hi fitted some ngk 4 prong plugs but car runs and misfires like mad, ive read that single point denso plugs are good for lpg on my s60 2.4 non turbo, if so are the denso tt type ok, part no k20tt and what gap should i set on them, cheers

no idea - but put your old plugs back in for now

Multi prong plugs are a no go with LPG. The denso number you have given looks like a twin prong so again not a good idea.

NGK BKR7E or iridium equivalent will do the job

BKR7EIX is the Iridium number

I'm a sure Classicswede will correct me but a smaller gap works better too. Cheap plugs cahnged often. A tenner the lot. (Specail so-called LPG plugs are snake-oil at those prices so can't possibly pay so forget 'em) Volvo have it that I should be at 0.9mm but my V70 was not happy (missing and poor starting) until I went down to 0.7mm.

I forgot to say, Ovlov quote 0.9mm but don't quote a differnt figure away from petrol. 0.9mm works when spanking new. 0.7mm works forever.


bimmer49 That's the kiddies for my V70 too...

A tenner for five delivered on the blag of e. This lot have been in a year (25-26000 miles) so should come out soon.

Thank you for this gem. I have been struggling with poor power on our single point system and I think it was due to too wide a spark gap

Not sure what you run... P80 coils are also prone to break-down. More so if worked hard, running wide-gap plugs. Spark goes somewhere else, and that'd be thru' coil insulation.
