K181 Spark Plug

Recommended Posts

AJ Desalvo

Good morning Members!!:greetings-wavingyellow:

Just wondering…

My research suggests that a Champion plug RCJ-8 belongs in my K181.

A Champion H-10C was installed in the engine at the time I purchased my Horse..

Probably a mistake or maybe a performance issue??

I welcome your opinions and suggestions..

Btw.. This forum is fantastic!!

Thank you all for sharing so much information!! :text-happynewyear:

Thank you for becoming a supporter of Red Square. Your research was correct, the Champion J-8 is called for on the Kohler engines from K-90 to K-181.

H-10 is the correct plug for big blocks tho. K241, 301 and up. 

Since the J-8 was such a common plug there are many crosses & substitutes should the rack be empty as often with my luck.

I like the autolites too! Good quality

 

that h10 is just a touch hotter then the j8 if it ran good on the h10 pull lever B. 

 

And if you want a hotter plug a nice replacement for the 216is the autolite 437

If you are getting fouling from a combination of a tired engine and wonderful high quality gas. A hotter plug will help

I know we do little stop and go driving but this shows how colder vs hotter works.
