Without starting a war on spark plugs, I, for one, am not saying don't use champions. Admittedly I don't buy many new plugs and only a limited range are available in the UK, but I have yet to have a 'disaster' with champion plugs. Usually I find at least one grade hotter is required as these old tractors are generally not worked hard enough to run properly on the standard grade recommended (when fuels were a lot different than nowadays). Also carbs were much newer and operators were more willing/able to tickle the carb settings, alter the cooling, adjust the timing etc. Living with their tractors, they had to learn the best way to run trouble-free - or nearly so. Modern tractor engines may be different, but this is, after all, a 'yesterdays' tractor forum. Regards, RAB

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
