Description:
The Autolite APP5243 Double Platinum Spark Plug is designed to deliver reliable ignition performance, reduced misfires, and extended service life. Its platinum-to-platinum firing design features platinum pads on both the center and ground electrodes to minimize gap erosion and maintain consistent spark performance over time.
The copper core center electrode helps improve heat transfer, supporting proper operating temperatures and reducing fouling. A yttrium-enhanced ground electrode increases durability under high temperatures and engine pressures, making this spark plug well suited for distributorless ignition system (DIS) engines. The high alumina ceramic insulator provides excellent thermal conductivity and dielectric strength, while the multi-rib insulator helps prevent flash-over for consistent ignition.
Autolite double platinum spark plugs provide dependable performance and long service intervals for many gasoline engine applications.
