TR6 spark plugs

I bought a set of TR6's. $ in each box. 4 had the screw on tips and 4 had the permanent tips. I put about 500 miles on them and sprayed a 125 shot 3 times. After about a week after spraying I noticed multiple misses. I could tell it was on the drivers side so I pulled those plugs. They were the permanent tipped ones and the porcelin was cracked on all 4 plugs. I changed all of the plugs and went to Autolite 103 and haven't sprayed them yet. I won't put NGK plugs in anythig except my 4 wheeler.

I have had the TR6's in my car for a good 6 months and sprayed on them a full 15lb. bottle. Not a problem at all. Check your spark plug gapping! I also use NGK plugs on my ZX12 (170mph+) and Ive never had a problem out of them either. Maybe you have an issue somewhere else? Dont spray on Platinum plugs or you will cause detonation and damage your motor.

Allways check the gap no matter what brand or # they are. As far as gapping I got away with gapping them at .040 on the 100 shot on a cam and bolt on car. When I bumped up to the 150 jets it was blowing the spark out over 1,000 psi so I gapped them down to where they were supposed to be at .035
