Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all, 2000 Boxster S. Somehow when doing a batch order for a full refresh I ended up with these NGK Platinum G-Power plugs. Single electrode, BKR6EGP. I assume they were the ones selected for the car by the supplier website. Wasn't until I went to install them when I saw that the pelican book, and OEM, references the 4 electrode plugs. Should I bother installing these to replace unknown mileage plugs or just throw them in the bin and order the OEM 4 prongs? Cheers.

POST 2Original post

Tell your supplier that they sent you the wrong part. The correct NGK plug appears to be the BKR6EK https://www.ngk.com/ngk-2288-bkr6ek-multi-ground-spark-plug

But I stick to NGK, really don't know why. But they work ;-)
