Identify this plug?
I have a need for these spark plugs, there are no marking on them at all.
Anyone know what they are and were to get them from?
Thanks!!

Also might try RC Extreme Power <font color="#000000" face="Arial Black" style="font-size: 19px;">678 372 7697</font> http://www.rcextremepower.net/ignitions.html

That particular plug is a Rimfire, made in USA by Paul Knapp...Google Rimfire spark plug..RC RXL and NGK also make these, the NGK is the reason Paul started making Rimfires, thet hav e short lifespan...[:-]

Wrong....The Rimfire is as good as the CM6, just smaller and a little fragile because of the size......I have a customer who runs Rimfires in converted glow engines, he gets 3 to 5 HUNDRED documented hours on a Rimfire...They last so long the side electrode gets eaten away by the spark, I have seen the results and the logs with flying times....

They're fragile because the porcelain is so small....The Chinese EXL 1/4-32 plugs are very good too...The NGKs just don't last as long....
The 3 to 500 hour results are from use in OS and Saito engines from the OS 70 to the big Saito....

+1 on the long life of the RimFire. I use them in my glow to gas conversions both 2 and 4 stroke. I can't tell much difference between the RCexl and the RimFire in my four strokes but the little SuperTigre 51 seems to prefer the RimFire, maybe because it's turning just over 15K on the ground and needs a little something extra. I can't hear any misfire on it with the RCexl but it turns about 2 to 300 more rpm's with the RimFire.

RE: Identify this plug?
The Rimfire was made because of the short lifespan of the NGK...
Champion wouldn't let Paul copy their spark plug, otherwise the Rimfire would look exactly like the old Champion...
we were there from the beginning, even tried a surface gap plug..It was too cold...
