Detailed Product Description

The Bosch Nickel Spark Plug 7909 features a single ground electrode with a tapered v-profile tip made of nickel, enhancing spark efficiency and combustion stability. The center electrode combines nickel-yttrium and copper materials, providing a balance of conductivity and wear resistance. Its ceramic insulator with a projected design improves voltage insulation and heat dissipation. The spark plug’s 14 mm thread diameter and 19 mm reach ensure compatibility with specific BMW engines, while the flat seat type guarantees a proper seal within the combustion chamber. The integrated 6000 ohm resistor helps reduce electromagnetic interference, supporting vehicle electronics.
