    I have been told…. Use Champions?

    I have always used NGK plugs and plug caps since running a Suzuki TS50ER (restricted, but unrestricted to 42mph back in the day). An RD125DX, a GT250, a GSX750, a ZXR750H2 and a GSXR1000K3 followed… all on NGK. Even the current Husaberg TE300 runs NGKs. The Hilux and Landcruisers don’t count...

    Will a D2 auto selector fit a D1?

    I have an autobox on a 3.9 EFI v8 Discovery Mk1 with a secondhand looking ‘T’ auto selector (button on driver’s side of the T). I have been given a much better one from a D2 (round head with a button at the front). Before I take the old one off, does anyone know if the D2 version will fit?
