Trackster Spark Plug
The Cushman Trackster Service Manual recommends Champion J2J (Discontinued)
Champion J2J Cross-References to:
Autolite = 353
Champion = J4C (825)
Bosch = W5EC
NGK = B7S
Other Spark Plug Information
NGK says:
B = 14 mm
R = Resistor (Used to reduce radio noise or interference)
# = Heat Range (2 Hot - 10 Cold) (Looks like 7 is the right heat for
the Trackster)
S = Standard 2.6 mm electrode
G = Racing use
V = Fine-wire electrode, gold-palladium
Heat Range
A hot spark plug has a much slower rate of heat transfer and is used
to
avoid fouling where combustion chamber or cylinder head temperatures
are
relatively low. A cold spark plug dissipates heat more rapidly in hot
running
engines to reduce the risk of pre-ignition. The correct heat range
is found
when the plug prevents fouling and does not contribute to pre-ignition
or
pre-detonation.
Fine Wire Electrodes (V)
Spark plugs with small diameter center electrodes (.050") were originally
designed to improve starting and anti-fouling characteristics in small
two-stroke engines such as snowmobiles, chain saws, and dirt bikes.
In Theory:
Good NGK plug numbers would be:
Hotter | Suggested | Cooler |
B6S | B7S | B8S |
B6G | B7G | B8G |
B6V | B7V | B8V |
BR6S | BR7S | BR8S |
BR6G | BR7G | BR8G |
BR6V | BR7V | BR8V |
