Champion plug pulled from a customers jeep. Looks like a piece of copper wire where the porcelain meets the metal hex. Is that the seal that keeps the combustion from going out the plug?
What is this sticking out of this spark plug?

Does Champion have a tech line you can call?
I think, so but no sign of residue from that place up the outer porcelain.
I don't like that i see melted material on the working end though!
What up with that? Too Much Nitrous
I never liked the over extended tip plugs used on fords and mazda as an ignition, emissions "crutch"
What engine?

89 wrangler with a carb'd 258. The base of the carb was warped as well as having various vacuum hoses off,broken etc. Huge vacuum leaks. Just got the carb back from the machine shop. They used the finger remover( long story lol) to flatten the warped carb base.
Trying to get it to pass the California emissions test.

Back in the 60's Champions were the nuts.
My Nailhead took J12Y
And even JD built Subaru sourced USA made Champions instead of junk NGK.
Our old 94 Impreza 1.8 took heat range 8 champs and the 9's wouldn't run for &%^$ and the BKR6ES-11 NGK wouldnt run right either,
How things change.

Weirdly Champions work well in my lawn mowers but not vehicles.

Yep, ruins most things.
So now you can by lots of garbage stuff with all the money you made in speculation.

Defective plug missed by QC. Probably has the coronavirus.
