Description
The Champion Platinum Power Spark Plug 3071 is engineered to deliver powerful ignition performance and long-lasting durability. Built with Champion’s exclusive Heat-Active™ alloy, this spark plug features a fine-wire platinum center electrode and a V-trimmed ground electrode to promote sharper spark focus and improved combustion efficiency.
The platinum center electrode helps resist wear and maintain proper gap specification over the life of the plug, while the fine-wire design improves ignitability by requiring less voltage to generate a strong, consistent spark. Champion’s Heat-Active alloy also helps the electrodes reach optimal operating temperature for reliable engine performance across a wide range of driving and operating conditions.
With a flat seat, crush washer, resistor design, and factory pre-gap of 0.035 in (0.89 mm), the RC12PYC is a premium replacement spark plug designed for dependable use in compatible automotive, marine, and equipment applications.
