Champion and some of the other newer plugs no longer have the shiny slick coating on the electrode insulator and once fouled with today's unleaded fuel they can't be cleaned are throw aways. I have always had some engines that didn't like Champions but others ran fine with them. Ran NGK or Denso plugs in Honda 4 wheeler till recently got hold of some bad NGK ones guess and went to Autolite and no more problems. I think they all are prone to just making bad batches and poor quality control today with mass computerized manufacturing once a bad batch is made and a warehouse gets them all their stock could be bad. Just what happens with mass mergers of companies and stupid overpaid corporate excutives who don't care no longer about the consumer as long as they get paid. I've had bad AC set put in a new engine they were bad replaced with another set from different store and worked fine. Champion ticked me off last time with a warranty problem I had with them on some plugs they made with bad threads the whole batch of CJ8 I had threads weren't cut right and dealer said deal direct with Champion but they never settled it to my liking it seems you the customer have to now do the quality control the factories don't know how and if don't like it dont' buy their crap product. Nothing goes in mine now but Denso, AC or Autolite.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
