Why don't you just buy the 7/8" plugs? I think they are better and don't foul as easily. Easier to clean too.

Your mag is only going to put out so hot a spark. Which plugs are you running now? They were originally sold with Champion #1 COMM, but #3 COMM is hotter. I am not sure how a Champion W-18 compares.

Champions have gone down hill and are not as good as they used to be. I would try some A-C's or Autolites.

I doubt smaller plugs will run any hotter. You may however, try to find some extensions that get the plugs up out of the oil.

As I understand it only non-resistor spark plugs are supposed to be used with a magneto. Is this important or just an old wives tail?

Also, be sure to use only real wire spark plug wires - non of those carbon-filled ones.

Well I put in these adaptors with some long reach 14 mm champion 12what ever hotteys and this thing screams.
I tryed her in 4 gear and the tracks wanted to spin on the dry grass.
I hope this lasts for awhile.

This is well worth it if she keeps on running so good.

Are the 14mm plugs any hotter than what can be purchased in 7/8?
