Quick plug query

[Oranoco]

Just got some new plugs but have been give NGK BKUR6ET. Are these correct?

Car is a '96 1.8T chipped

BKR6EK are cheaper and will do the same job, but i think ours is also running on BKUR6ET's at the moment.

the T means triple electrode, rather than the double of the K

the U is apparently "surface discharge type", whatever that means.

Cool, they're in and it no longer seems to be blowing the spark out so job jobbed. Quite a bit of oil on the plugs which is a little worrying. Can't say I relish the thought of a looming engine build

 

[aragorn]

wet oil?

Might just be the rocker cover gasket?

Good thinking batman. Job for the weekend!
