I'm not a fan of champion plugs.... but, that's just me. Too many bad experiences with 'em fouling out, and then never firing again. Of course, that was on carbed engines..... so, yeah, it's been a while.

I've run Champions for years, BUT, and it's a big but, they don't like to be flooded. Once you flood them, replace them. There's something about the porcelain on the insulator that keeps them from running right. I'm running Champions right now in my Dakota, but F.I. doesn't flood much.
