Autolite AP5125 Spark Plug

Autolite Platinum Spark Plug AP5125

Autolite Platinum Spark Plug AP5125 is an OE-style replacement built for steady ignition performance, easier starting, and consistent drivability. It uses a platinum center electrode with a nickel ground electrode and a pre-gap of 0.044 in. (1.10 mm) for applications that call for this specification.

Compatible with select Ford trucks and vans, including Ford F-150, Ford E-150 Econoline, and Ford E-350 Econoline applications, this spark plug is built around OE form, fit, and function. The AP5125 part number is also referenced in aftermarket interchange listings for the same application.
