So long as the plug is of the correct nose length and hear rating it will be fine

GTis should just use standard NGK plugs. They don't get on well with these fancy twin or quad electrode plugs.

The rr operator knew his stuff on the a series so we went through changing the carb spring rating, oil in the carb damper changed the needle but although they improved things they didn't eliminate the issue , as a last resort we swapped the plugs out for my old used NGKR. Plugs I had in the car, miss fire went and the car made a few bhp more. Swapped in a new set of the same plugs and he had to alter a few settings and got a few bhp out of it!! Stick with standard plugs, with multi electrode you still only get the one spark |
