Hi all,


Long time member, frequent lurker, first time poster.
I'm giving a 1993 10201 a really nice re-do. Deck is going to Grabber green, you can't tell the difference. I saw this paint color on an old post from Indy 452 on this site.
My question, manual calls for Champion RJ12C. Must be obsolete, what is the correct replacement plug?
If I missed something on viewing prior posts, I apologize.:smile:

Thanks,

Jim

I'd get an NGK BR6S. I used to have the same mower, and it seemed to run a little smoother with the NGK over the Champion. Those V-Series engines are pretty beastly for being rated at 4.5hp. They would just about mow over small saplings if they were in the way...

L8R,
Matt

Not sure what's around you, but I'm in an Ace Hardware right now and they have a full row of Champion RJ12C plugs. But personally I'd still go with an NGK...

Thanks to all for the response.
I went to Advance, Home Depot and the local mower shop and no RJ12C, now I know what to look for.
