BMW 540i Ignition and Tune-Up Products

The Premium DiamondFire Automotive Spark Plug is engineered to deliver peak performance and efficiency for your vehicle. Featuring E3’s patented Diamond Fire edge-to-edge ground electrode, it ensures a faster, more complete burn for smoother acceleration and idle. The innovative “diamond-shaped” side wire electrode enhances combustion by igniting the air/fuel mixture more quickly, resulting in a larger flame kernel and improved power output – up to 6% on average. Designed with nickel center and ground electrode tips, this spark plug offers durability and consistent performance. Its cleaner-burning combustion reduces engine carbon deposits and promotes fuel savings, making it an eco-friendly choice. Pre-gapped at the factory for hassle-free installation, this spark plug is a perfect blend of advanced technology and convenience, ensuring your engine runs at its best.

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 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.
