E3 – DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas (Part No.E3.46)

DiamondFIRE Automotive Spark Plug: More Power, Saves Gas

from

$7.49
The Spark Plugs are the product of years of fundamental research in the combustion field. The unique patented electrode configuration of these new The spark plugs increases the amount of combustion pressure created during each power stroke of an engine, which results in a marked increase in power output, fuel economy, and reduced emissions in all gasoline engines. E3.46 is a 14mm, 0.750 reach plug with a gasket seat. It fits a wide variety of applications from the 60s to early 90s, especially import. E3.46 is widely stocked in automotive retail stores. The automotive plugs have three legs securing the Diamond FIRE electrode to the shell. This allows for excellent heat transfer, and helps to create more turbulence in the cylinder. The patented Diamond FIRE side wire is proven to increase power, reduce fuel consumption and improve hydrocarbon emissions in long-term use.

Product Features:
  • E3’s Diamond Fire edge to edge ground electrode provides maximum performance with increased efficiency and a faster more complete burn.
  • Smoother Acceleration & Idle – The faster flame initiated by the The spark plug results in a more complete burn of the ingested fuel charge. More pressure is created against the piston more fuel is put to work
  • Energy – Power output improved up to 6% on average in the typical operating ranges. Results will vary.
  • Efficiency – The “diamond shaped” side wire electrode projects the combustion spark in a way that more quickly ignites the air/fuel mixture, thereby creating a significantly faster and larger flame kernel. The result is that more fuel is put to work durin
  • E3’s patented Diamond Fire Technology provides a cleaner burning combustion, which translates into fuel savings and reduced engine carbon deposits
  • The Spark Plugs are pre-gapped at the factory and cannot be adjusted.
  • Wide Compatibility: The E3.46 spark plugs are 14mm with a 0.750 reach and a gasket seat, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from the 1960s to early 1990s, especially for import vehicles.
  • Widely Available: The E3.46 spark plugs are widely stocked in automotive retail stores, ensuring easy availability for consumers.

Autolite – Diesel Engine Glow Plug: High Intensity Concentrated Heat, Reliable Starts (Part No.1116)

Diesel Engine  Glow Plug: High Intensity Concentrated Heat, Reliable Starts

from

$19.99
Starting a diesel engine? Check out Autolite glow plugs. They’re dependable and long-lasting, the perfect plug for a variety of diesel applications. Diesel engines depend on high heat in the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel. When you cold start a diesel engine, there isn’t enough heat to ignite. Autolite glow plugs warm the combustion chamber to start the fuel ignition, reaching temperatures hot enough to start in 30 seconds or less. If you’re experiencing problems starting your diesel engine, it may have burnt out glow plugs. For dependability and long-lasting performance, use Autolite glow plugs.

Product Features:
  • Diesel engines depend on high heat in the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel. When you cold start a diesel engine, there isn’t enough heat to ignite. Glow plug warms the combustion chamber to start the fuel ignition.
  • These glow plugs fit a variety of diesel applications. If you’re experiencing problems starting your diesel engine, it may have burnt out glow plugs.

NGK – Ceramic Glow Plugs (Part No.F110088219NGK)

Ceramic Glow Plugs

from

$55.84
The new ceramic high-temperature glow plug (NHTC glow plug, New High Temperature Ceramic) has a fully ceramic heating element. It reaches an operating temperature of 1000C in two seconds and can afterglow for up to ten minutes at temperatures up to 1350C. That means: It glows in push phases or during the regeneration phase of the particle filter and thereby minimizes the particle emissions during this time. The NHTC ceramic glow plug was specially developed by NGK to enable automobile manufacturers to comply with the Euro 4 and Euro 5 emissions standards. One of the goals of these standards is to reduce the compression ratio in diesel engines. NHTC glow plugs reach a temperature of 1,000C in less than two seconds and can after-glow for more than ten minutes at temperatures of up to 1,350C. Optimal combustion is assured even with low compression ratios. In addition, the NHTC glow plug can glow intermediately to prevent cooling of the particle filter in deceleration phases. Ceramic glow plugs from NGK guarantee a long service life and ensure a reliable and fast ignition, even at the lowest outside temperatures. At the same time, they reduce harmful emissions.
