Thanks for the info! I did not realize the top tip screwed off on the replacement spark plug, I just bought. I just removed it, because of the info in this video, and now it actually fits the spark plug boot. I thought O’Reilly’s gave me the wrong plug. Great video & info!!👍
George Morgan exactly that, it happened to me today I’ve just bought a new plug for my bike and half the reason was cos i need the terminal on the top or whatever is it
Video sucks because you don't mention what model numbers each are. If I need to purchase one. I had to decipher it from the 3 samples shown on the vid.
Oh forgot, this got me into trouble twice and ruined 2 good spark plug wires that can't be purchased individually. $100 loss, not to mention the unburned gasoline that washed the oil film away, damaged my engine, the wasted fuel and time tracking this problem down. NGK garbage.
Screw on terminals are not approved by OEM's. Unreliable for consistant current flow. Heat cycling causes terminals to loosen even when crimped from the factory. Aftermarket junk.

Thank you for explaining the simple differences, and the terminology!
You're very welcome!

I just broke my primary coil boot because of this garbage. Ngk can eat it.
Not their fault you all are uneducated and prob shouldn’t be touching anything mechanical
@@MrJamesTimmons How about checking first and actually buying the correct one instead of blaming someone on your shortcomings?
Thanks very informative . Nice one
Good video learned something new and got my answer
Do you know what the thread is on the top of the spark plug
Well mine are apparently loose but I can’t I screw off the top
3 years late but any luck unscrewing them? I'm in the same position
@@TBD_Teebs ya man I had to use some pliers.
@@i_read_bad_reviews edit: Scratch that, finally got it, took some grip mat plus pliers lol
Thank you i just thougt i should buy a new sparkplug :D
you're welcome!
Today I learned that I am never buying another NGK product for as long as I live.
Your loss, pendejo
For why?

Useless information if you don't have a different part number for each type.
These ***** screw on tips have the tendency to unscrew during use, no matter how strong they are tightened.

Really? So Yamaha using them on the PWs just as an example doesn’t count?
