I can't find a good reference source for plug applications. I was running an Autolite #24 and was told recently by a reputable shop known on the boards I should be running a #144. I don't know what the difference is?? The 24's were running good but if there is more performance with the 144 I'd like to switch. Is there a good source for reference?? Any info. would be appreciated. Thanks.

I run autolite 24's or 23's, but I have a Magneto.
if your not running alot of compression or a lot of boost with like blowers or turbos i feel that the 24's will be fine. the 144's are a very cold sparkplug more for like race applications. the 24's are extended tip and the 144's are not.
BB- I went to their site before but couldn't get the info I was looking for. I even left them a message that they didn't return. Maybe just me.
21rayson- I'm pretty stock so I think that I'll stick with the 24's. If anything I'd like to run a little hotter, since it's a jet it tends to run too damn cold anyway. wink Is it the lower the number the higher the heat range??
As always ***boaters come through again!!

If your plugs have a nice color, stay with that range. "Hotter" plugs could cause problems, and usually you go to a "colder" plug when you start doing performance mods.
Thanks for setting me straight Boater Bill. Say Hi to Sannie for me (you guys might remember me by HoJoe69) Anyone going out to Elsinore this weekend??
