Spark Plugs 1.3

Hi All quick question.

Bought a Fiesta 1.3 Finesse yesterday and giving it a service today, I think the spark plugs I have been supplied are incorrect... I have the Endura Engine.

The ones I removed are NGK BPR5EFS and are Tapered.

Ones I was supplied Bosch FR7DCX and are Gasket? type (Ie not tapered)

both plugs are same thread and length, Any ideas which ones are correct?

regards Dietmar

    Hi

    They need to be tapered not gasketed.

    Who or whom supplied them to you.

    The NGK ones i believe are correct for your car.

    p.s the plugs i used to use on my original fiesta which was a 1989 mk3 1.0 hcs were tapered not gasketted

    cheer's for the quick reply, Eurocarparts supplied the plugs and you would of thought that with me giving the registration they would of got it right.

    However I have just checked the Invoice and it states HR7DCX the guy might of gone to the wrong bin.

    Maybe F is gasket and H is tapered
