I need a new set of plugs : which are the best-suited for the Morris 1000 1096 cc engine ?? My manuals are out of date . Cheers :roll: Arfron

Used to use Champion N9YC but found I could get a dreadful misfire if driven v hard eg full throttle uphill passed Basingstoke on the M3. Now use NGK BP6ES which are a bit cooler (not meaning fashionable - wot we used to call harder). Had them in for almost 10,000 miles now without complaint - even tho' its a bit of an oil burner.

I'd like to add to Mike's comments. I use NGKs too. I find they are much better than the Champions or Bosch ones.

Just to add another point at our branch we have found that cars with unleaded heads run better with the NGK`s as well as lasting better with less electrode wear.
