Don't Trust an On-Line Order
Made this an on-line order for four (4) spark plugs; waited about one hour and went to store for parts pick-up. They handed me a pack of the WRONG spark plugs. Waited until the guy actually found the correct ones, BUT they only had three (the on-line computer system said they had four.) Get this--since the order was "on line," it was not yet 'fully processed,' so the Parts Clerk was unable to re-write the order for 3 plugs, nor give me a credit. Waited in the store until the on-line order was FINALIZED. Wasted much time and after a while I said: "Look, just cancel the whole order, and I'll pay cash for the three plus you've got." This resulted in me LOOSING my cool 25% discount. What a colossal PITA!

The Right Spark Plug for Marine Use.
I use only this Champion QL78YC marine spark plug in my 1999 Johnson 130HP outboard motor! My motor is 22 years old and runs like a dream with these plugs! I run around 500 miles each year and a set of plugs lasts the entire season. I have never had a bad spark plug nor any on-water incidents using these plugs. Excellent Quality and burn evenly, i.e., consistently. If your Motor Manual calls for this Champion product, do not use a substitute and you be rewarded with outstanding power and consistency.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
