ALTERNATIVE
NGK PLUGS FOR FORD ZETEC ENGINE
NGK
is introducing on the replacement parts market a new resistor spark
plug, the TR6B-13 as an alternative to the PTR5A-13, which is imported
from Japan. Made in Brazil and designed for Escort sedans, hatchbacks,
and station wagons equipped with Zetec 1.8L 16Valve engine, and
Fiestas and Couriers with the 1.4/16V engine, this new spark plug
has lateral electrodes in nickel alloy to attend the engineÕs specific
needs, not as conventional spark plugs.
The
domestic-made NGK TR6B-13 also can be used in Ford Mondeos GLX/CLX
with the Zetec 1.8/16V and 2.0/16V engines, imported from Europe.
The cost-benefit relationship of using parts produced in Brazil
is a big advantage to car owners. The new spark plugs can be found
in renowned auto parts stores and in NGK distributors around Brazil.
The
life of a spark plug depends on the proper maintenance of the engine
and fuel quality. NGK recommends checking a vehicle's spark plugs
every 10,000 km, and replacing them when necessary.
NGK
also makes the TR6B-10 spark plug only for Zetec Rocam 1.0 and 1.6
engines, which are used in the Fiesta, Ka, and Courier models built
after 1999.
