 spark plugs What's the difference between eyquem c42s and c62 plugs?I ask because mine has c62's
and I have some cold starting issues and I believe the c42s are the standard plugs.

Re: spark plugs According to Eyquem's technical data, C62 is their current plug in the heat range equivalent to the plugs originally fitted. http://www.scribd.com/doc/40696382/Catalog-BujiiHowever, since engines tend to run hotter on unleaded fuel than they did on leaded, a cooler grade of plug than that originally recommended by Citroen is advisable nowadays. I don't think that you should be fitting C42s, as they are a hotter grade of plug, really only suitable for trundling around town...  ken andyx wrote: What's the difference between eyquem c42s and c62 plugs?I ask because mine has c62's

Re: spark plugs I always found eyquem to go off quickly and were a pig to start. NGK-B7s all the time now

Re: spark plugs Must admit I've always liked Ngk's in general and also denso plugs.
You prefer a b7 Sean do you do a lot of hard/fast driving,would a b6 be more suitable for my mix of town/fast A road Driving (I lost my loony driving hormonesa long time ago.
