Another Iridium spark plug question was created by Gunhog63
Hi all
Please forgive my ignorance but is it ok to use iridium plugs which I assume have a built in resistance with NGK caps which also have a built in resistance. I have a set of BPR 6EIX. I have new coils that I got off www.z1300.de which tell you not to use the ballast resistor and includes a by pass mini loom to fit in its place. I hope this makes sense.

Any advice greatly appreciated

My only fear is that when I die my wife sells my bike for what I have told her I spent on it.

The ballast resistors are part of the coil input circuit, not the output circuit where the spark plugs are connected.

Bottom line, the NGK BPR6EIX with the 5K resistor plug caps will be fine. Go ahead and use them together.

Hi
Thanks for that. My restoration project has been an 18 month journey of discovery.
Nearing completion now

Cheers
