Spark plug for GIO 250's?

Maplicito · 02-01-2019, 11:49 AM

Does anyone have a recommendation for spark plugs for the GIO 250's? I believe it's a Zongshen CB250 motor in all of them - I'm hoping for a recommendation from one of the major spark plug lines like NKG. Thanks!

NGK DPR8EIX-9 Iridium IX Spark Plug (2202). Same plug that most of the CG250 people use.

I did some deeper digging, and saw DR8EA or D8EA by NGK suggested as well - taking a look at NGK's codes, all these plugs have the same heat range, it's just a question of resistor vs non resistor, iridium vs non-iridium, and whether or not it's the projected insulator? In other words all those plugs SHOULD work okay? Asking, not stating - I'm definitely not a spark plug expert.

For your "spark plug cross reference needs"

Don't forget that Denso also makes really good spark plugs... and they can be found for a little less coin compared to NGK's

Awesome - thanks for the help! I'm not familiar with Denso... I know NGK, Bosch, Champion... but I'm definitely not opposed to going with a different company and saving money if the plug is still good. Thanks again!
