How many NGK spark plugs do you need?
Our pictures are courtesy of our donor vehicle, a 2012 JKU with 96,000 km (for our American friends, that’s about 59,600 miles). We’re going to be using NGK Iridium plugs, NGK part number 1989. They only come with 4 per box, so you’ll need 2 boxes for the job. Proper gap for these bad boys is 0.031, or 31 thousandths.

What is the pressure between the spark plug gap and ground electrode?
between the spark plug gap (center electrode and ground electrode). 2) Pressure in the combustion chamber at time of spark discharge – Depends on compression and aspiration of the engine. High compression engines and engines with forced induction have higher combustion chamber pressures at time of spark discharge.
