56 292 spark plugs I am looking to get new plugs for my 56 wagon. It's got the original 292 that I put an autolite 4100 carb on. I was running pertronix ignition until it failed. I went back to the points and condenser. Pretty sure I want to go with a copper core plug, but I see that some say resistor or non-resistor. Not sure what the difference is or which one to go with. Any thoughts?

Re: 56 292 spark plugs Part of the reason for 'resistor' plugs or wires is to cut down on static in the AM radio.
They also reduce stray magnetic fields around the plug wires that can... interfere with some electronic ignition systems. I'll let someone who knows about specific spark plugs answer your original question. . |
Re: 56 292 spark plugs I really liked the NGK plugs that I bought at O'Riellys. They outlasted Champions by four to one. I gapped them at .030 to .032

Concerning your period engine, a quality set of IGN WIRES (also discussed within the site) will give you adequate suppression allowing the plugs (non-resistor) to deliver a hotter spark (again IMO). |

Re: 56 292 spark plugs I use Autolite 46's for years and never had a bad one.
