Detailed Product Description
The NGK Laser Iridium Spark Plug 6700 (part number Re7c-l) is specifically designed for the Mazda RX-8, providing a reliable ignition source with a focus on longevity and performance. The iridium center electrode tip offers a fine point that requires less voltage to generate a spark, improving ignition efficiency. The copper core enhances electrical conductivity, while the platinum ground electrode core increases resistance to wear and corrosion. The pin type ground electrode tip combined with a slant ground configuration optimizes spark exposure and combustion. The spark plug features a flat seat type and a 14mm thread diameter with a 21mm reach, ensuring proper fitment and sealing in the RX-8 engine. The pre-gap size of 0.044 inches is factory set to maintain consistent spark gaps, reducing misfires and improving fuel efficiency.
