T500 Spark Plugs
I found some NOS B77-HC plugs (OEM T500 plug) and know they've been discontinued for some time. I think the replacement plug is the B7HS. So my question is what's the difference between the two plugs? Thanks

Re: T500 Spark Plugs
I am not sure what the difference is.
You can still get B-77HC on eBay
I have run the B7HS. Now running the Iridium version of them BPR7HIX with caps without resistor
Denso makes some too and others
This is interesting http://www.ozebook.com/compendium/t500_ ... pspecs.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
And NGK calls out B7hs

Re: T500 Spark Plugs
Full info on the NGK codes is here

But as I understand it, the 77 was a bit cooler than the 7, but not as cool as the 8. The difference was small though (as I understand it)
I'm currently running 7s but have used 6s in the past with no problem (but no high speed highway stuff either, all small roads)

Re: T500 Spark Plugs
NGK says they were discontinued in 1983 and couldn't tell me the difference as their books don't go back that far.
