{"product_id":"ruthenium-hx-long-life-spark-plug","title":"Ruthenium HX Long Life Spark Plug","description":"The NGK Laser Iridium spark plug serves as a performance-oriented ignition solution for enthusiasts seeking improved ignitability and engine stability. The inclusion of a platinum ground electrode further supports maximum engine efficiency.\n\nTechnically, this spark plug utilizes a fine-wire 0.6mm center electrode to focus spark energy, reducing the voltage requirements for reliable ignition. The shell is finished with trivalent metal plating to provide anti-corrosion and anti-seizing properties during installation, while corrugated ribs on the insulator help prevent flashover. A pure alumina silicate ceramic insulator and a copper core are employed to improve strength and facilitate effective heat transfer away from the combustion chamber.\n\nInstallation requires attention to specific torque requirements: 18-25.3 lb-ft for cast iron heads or 18-21.6 lb-ft for aluminum heads. These plugs are pre-gapped for general use, but users must verify and adjust the gap to meet the specific requirements of their application. This plug is compatible with 2012-2020 Chevrolet Sonic models equipped with the 1.4L L4 engine, among other applications. Note that these components should be installed according to factory service intervals for optimal performance and ignition reliability.","brand":"NGK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52663097262392,"sku":"2024103759","price":52.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687076932.jpg?v=1784323778","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/ruthenium-hx-long-life-spark-plug","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
