kwak250 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I am about to change my Honda civic spark plugs as the last service they said they were needed and wanted over 8000baht for 4 with fitting I know all the bs Lazada /shopee 100% genuine are not worth buying but trying to find an official ngk suppler as not managed to find any. Ebay is full of copies just trying to find a genuine store. Any help would be great as I am sure they are not 2000baht+ and only take 10minutes to change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so worried about a cabin air filter or wiper blades . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought NGK on Lazada but looked at the store they were coming from, then looked in the store, it was a place that did absolutely everything, so went for it. The store was called Superpart.. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the Civic engine needs to be removed to change them. Most expensive on lazada 1350 a set. The one I bought for my scooter was 388 but..the only 10 heat range I could find.

Yes i do think 2000 each is steep but also 1350 baht a set sounds very cheap .almost 100% fake i was expecting maybe 4-5000 baht which makes me sure at around 340b baht baht each they are going to be fake they do have sets over 1350 I have heard fake spark plugs are fine for about 7-8k then you can get problems I also put a 180 baht spark plug in our yamaha filano and its fine but then its not expensive to replace This set is what i was going to buy but not seen any sold https://www.lazada.co.th/products/ngk-laser-iridium-ilzkar8h8s-honda-civic-fc-tea-2017-city-p10a6-10l-2019-i4177277721-s16425774211.html? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Unlike other countries, the labour cost for changing plugs is not that great so you don't need super long-life plugs. I replace mine at every oil change. So, for me, every 10,000 kms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1,900 a set in the US from the NKG, so 1,350 does not seem that cheap. If it's the right thread and the right length, it can't really hurt the engine, unless the electrode falls off.

I run LPG which is hard on plugs and ignition system. Used to be difficult to find heat range 6 plugs instead of stock 5 as dealers only sold std. plugs for specific vehicles. So I changed the 5 at every oil change. Now I can buy cheap "taxi" plugs but the habit persists. Quote There are two critical factors that need to be understood when converting a vehicle from petrol to LPG: LPG burns hotter LPG increases the voltage requirement at the electrode gap In an attempt to correct these two factors, as a general rule we suggest to: Use a spark plug that is one heat range colder than standard to compensate for the increased heat from LPG: https://www.ngk.com.au/technical_info/lpg-compatibility/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
