A = 19.0 B = 19.0 C = 19.0 D = 19.0 E = 19.0 F =12.7 FE = 19.0 G = 19.0 H = 26.5 L = 11.2 M = 8.6 N = 17.5 V = 25.0 |
B = 3 Ground Electrodes D = 4 Ground Electrodes K = 1mm Projected M = Compact Type P = 1.5mm Projected S = 0mm Projected T = Double Ground Electrodes X = 2.5mm Projected |
R = With Resistor None = Without Resistor |
C = Cut-Back Ground Electrode M = Increased Ground Electrode Size N = For Yamaha & Kawasaki P = Double Platinum U = U-Groove US = Star-Shaped Center Electrode S = Semi-Surface Discharge Z = Taper Cut |
5 = 0.5mm 8 = 0.8mm 9 = 0.9mm 10 = 1.0mm 13 = 1.3mm 14 = 1.4mm 15 = 1.5mm 20 = 2.0mm |
Improves more reliable start
More complete combustion
Lower emissions
Ignites leaner air/fuel mixtures
OE in many Japanese vehicles
Lifetime of DENSO U-Groove is longer
