plugs

I ordered some colder plugs (BERU) from Outmotoring(Man! they get their stuff to me quick) Anyhow, so I decide to go out to the car and do a quick change . When i take out the stock plug (NGK R5) I notice the length from
washer to end of the electrode is about an 1/8 in. longer on the Beru. I dont recall ever swapping out plugs and having that much difference in the plug. just a lil scary. (punching a hole in the top of a piston is really low on my things to accomplish in life) So I call Outmotoring to verify things but they close early in the summer. Great for them, bad for me. the Beru is an R6 anybody Know anything for sure about this.

We have sold hundreds of these without any issues. Just be sure to start threading them by hand until you get past the first few threads..
They are great plugs!
