NGK = no good kindi think most jap motors run them
Thanks: 0

Just making sure I ain't screwing up and buying the wrong ones. I just ordered a Compression tester and a Spark tester to start narrowing things down on the motor so I can get back to feshing. I did a search and found that the NGK BP8H-N-10 seems to be the right plugs. This was from the Mercury wensite. Is NGK a good brand? Before you ask, NO, I ain't at the house to check what's in it now. LOL

Good plugs.
If wait on the compression tester. If u have low compression, u won't need new plugs and u can use the $ u save for the new motor. Your welcome.

Speaking of motors. You ever get everything back up and running?

NGKs are what you need to be running and that's a pretty standard Merc plug number so its most likely what you need. Why didn't you just get a compression tester at the parts house??? It will be more accurate if you crank the motor, if it will and let it warm up a little bit.

You could have got a compression gauge at Harbor Freight. You already have a spark tester.....just hold the end of the plug wire and hit the starter lol
