Detailed Product Description
The Autolite Copper Non-Resistor Spark Plug 373 features a copper core center electrode that improves electrical conductivity, promoting efficient spark generation. Both the center and ground electrode tips are made of nickel, providing resistance to wear and corrosion. The tapered ground electrode tip design enhances spark exposure to the combustion chamber, supporting better ignition. This spark plug has a flat seat type and a reach of 0.750 inches (19.5 mm), suitable for many automotive engines requiring this specification. The short ceramic insulator offers excellent heat resistance and electrical insulation, while the removable nut terminal type simplifies installation and maintenance. With a non-resistor design, this spark plug delivers strong spark energy without interference, making it compatible with ignition systems that do not require resistor plugs.
