Spark plug Caps 750K8???
« on: January 25, 2011, 05:53:36 AM »
 Was doing my 2.5K  ;) tune up looking at my caps this is what I got on my Simpson 260 #1=2.8ohms #2=open no reading #3=5.4 ohms #4=3ohms (not K ohms). The bike runs good other than hard to start however I'm getting new caps. I can not find a part # in the manual in the ignition sec. it shows the coils but not the caps.When I go on line three different sites show them as item # 7 & 8 and the have three # 7 & 3 # 8 I don't know what the difference is and the (Boy) at the Honda shop does not either. Can anyone HELP with part # for the 5 K ohm caps two straight two bent looks like 30 to 40 degrees.

           PS Bike runs the same with DR8EA or D8EA  ??? WTH. Also can go with NGK or OEM Thanks for any help

Use the D8EA plugs, your bike will run better.

They have caps here that are ngk which is what the bike came with stock. You need 2 (SD05F)straight and 2 120 degree (VD05F) elbow style caps. Should be the 12mm caps.

The plugs you can get at AutoZone. The caps you can get from Z1.
Dedicated to Sgt. Howard Bruckner 1950 - 1969. KIA LONG KHANH.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
