    Ngk Dr8esl?

    I have been running these in my 200es, and 250es, anyone recommend anything otherwise? just looking for less fouling, I believe one of my 200es valve stem seal seals is leaking a little. I change plugs every 3 hours!!! Just looking for an upgrade if there is one? I see that the NGK has a heat range of 8, and the denso has one of 24, not sure what that means. what about iridium????
    Thanks

    I run Champion RA6HC in my 200m. I find they resist fouling better than the NGK plugs.

    I guess you don't want to fix the valve seal?? You can actually change it without taking the head off which makes it a chicken job......

    Doesn't sound like the plug is your problem

    Thats the thing, 4 stroke plugs - some guys don't change them in 2 or more years! If it's getting that wet and fouled, your gonna have to take care of the issue thats causing it.

    The first thing I look for when my valve stem seal seals are going is a fouled plug for sure. I don't know what they get for valve stem seal seals these days either.

    The 200s are know for the Carb needles wearing and riching the mixture, causing fouling. In my opinion NGK is the best plug to run, you need to fix what is causing the fouling.
