Hi
I want some "Lodge C3" spark plugs, with three contacts on the bottom, for my Lister D engine?
Can anyone help?
Cheers

Hi
Yeah I think it is 18mm thread, I think Champion D16 plugs fit and work in the engine, well so I have been told.
Cheers

Hi
Sorry it was taken me so long!
These are pics of the Lodge C3 I have, is this the same as the one you have found, with the three contacts on the bottom?
Cheers

Hi
Sorry I forgot to include a ruler in the pic, so here are some aprox measurements:-
Just under 3" long
16mm thread from what I can tell!
ceramic part is pink and is about 20mm long, and printed with LODGE, Made in England, C3
That is about all I can say!
I have a champion plug in the lister just now, and it is fine but they run very hot, and so after about 30-45mins it boils! So having a decent lodge plug, or simmilar to try would be good! If nothing else it would look good in by the engine!
Cheers
