Normal ngk will be fine but don't use champion they are not worth a ****. But plantium will be better. Is he having problems or just curious?

NGK BPR-6E work fine on both my RR Classic and Discovery 2 - both with LPG

I've always run on Champion plugs (RRC & Disco) without any issues, but then the only LPG I have is for the Bar-b-Q

You may swear by champion plugs but have you ever tried ngk? You won't go back champion is a gamble weather they all work. You must of been lucky to get all 8 working

Thanx for all the interest, my friend has trouble when its damp. He says it starts fine, then as the temp starts to rise it runs like cack for about 2 mile,s, then its ok. It only happens when its wet, other than that its champion, got me bolloxed !

leads or dizzy cap and rotor

Clean plug leads and keep seperated as far as poss, if you have to spray with WD40 or similar. If you don't have the under bonnet sound proofing then condensation will or can drop on to the leads..

i use champion plugs, as recommended in haynes manual

i heard the engine was designed for them also, so thought they'd be nice for it

and i havent had an issue yet...

so who knows!

i did break a champion once and had to fit an ngk as an emergency spare, and it still felt the same

i only use split fire platinum plugs very expensive and yes i did notice a hugh difference smoother idle and the co% dropped down when tested 4 years on and 25,000 miles and still good they are warranted for 100,000 miles but will be changing next year.
have fitted them to a customer d2 with my exocet engine and gas no problems at all
