Spark Plug Help!

last night I called my local parts store (Napa) and I ordered NGK (5992) ILZKBR7A-8G but when I arrived the told me the part number I got cross to NGK ILZKBR7B8DG 95770 so they are the ones they gave me. So I have been trying to do some research on the part number and I cant find them on the site. So I was jus wondering if they are the ones I want.

You are paying $15 or so per plug, you should get the ones that you ordered. You can google what the NGK part number means if you really want to find out.




Why would you not want to use the right ones?

I called my buddy and he said that the NGK (5992) ILZKBR7A-8G are Discontinued and the NGK ILZKBR7B8DG 95770 have replaced them.

If you go to NGK's website, they only list the (5992) ILZKBR7A-8G for the Mini. Nothing else. If it had been superseded, one would think that NGK would update their website.

If a parts guy cross references to a different brand and then back to NGK, he could get anything that fits, but not the right plug.
