Description
The Champion Platinum Power Spark Plug 3013 is engineered for premium ignition performance and long service life. Built with Champion’s exclusive Heat-Active alloy, this spark plug features a fine-wire platinum center electrode and V-trimmed ground electrode to promote sharper spark focus, improved ignitability, and consistent combustion.
The platinum-tipped center wire helps resist wear and maintain proper gap specification over the life of the plug, while the fine-wire center electrode reduces voltage demand for reliable starting and smooth engine operation. Champion’s V-trimmed ground electrode design helps improve spark exposure, and the Heat-Active alloy allows the electrodes to reach optimal operating temperature for dependable performance.
With a tapered seat, resistor design, and factory pre-gap of 0.060 in (1.52 mm), the RS14PYC6 is a durable standard replacement spark plug suited for a wide range of automotive, truck, commercial, and marine applications.
