Champion 588 Spark Plugs?

Post by ScottS »

All my reasonable Autolite plug sources dried up, I have never used the champion crossover, 588. Anyone have experience with these pulugs, good or bad? Availability seems solid, some retailers sellin for under $11 pr so. Any info would be great 👍

Which autolite plug are you substituting a Champion 588 for? It is the recommended plug for the M38's L-134.

With the low compressions and low power output of these 134 engines I think a Champion plug will perform just as well as an Autolite.
