Don't want to argue, but Champs are for the most part made in Mexico. Some, but not all Auotlites are made in China. NGK is, for the most part made in Japan. SO is it OK NOT to use a plug made China or Mexico, but it is OK to use a plug made in Japan? Regardless, Ive never had anything but bad luck with Champs, usually fouling within a few hours. Ive had minimal problems with Autolites, in fact all 6 of my tractors have have Autolites that are at least 8 years old in the newest set, some are pushing 12 - 13 years. Granted these tractors don't get used every day, and a couple have only been started once a year in the last 3 or 4 years. The oldest set I put in one of my Ms in 96 or 97, and this tractor sees and has seen on average 20 hours a year. The last set of Champs I bought, not by choice, were put in one of my other Ms. I drove it out of the barn and rode around about an hour, loaded it on the trailer, went to the show, and as I was backing off the trailer it started skipping. Buddy of mine had an old AC plug he pulled out of a C laying in the back of his truck. It had been there at least 2 months.

This is just my experience, and Im sure others will disagree or not believe it.

If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
