FAQs
What does the 'CR6HS' designation mean?
CR typically denotes a resistor type spark plug. The '6' often relates to the heat range, and 'HS' can indicate specific thread and reach dimensions. Always confirm with your vehicle's specifications.
How do I know if this spark plug is compatible with my vehicle?
You must check your vehicle's owner's manual or a reputable parts lookup service using your vehicle's make, model, and year. Do not rely solely on the engine CC rating.
What is the purpose of the resistor in the spark plug?
The 5kOhm resistor helps to suppress radio frequency interference (RFI) generated by the ignition system, which can interfere with electronic components and radio signals.
Do I need to adjust the spark plug gap?
The NGK CR6HS comes pre-set to 0.028 inches. While this is a common gap, it's best practice to verify your vehicle's specific gap requirement and adjust if necessary before installation.
How often should I replace spark plugs?
Replacement intervals vary by vehicle and spark plug type. Consult your owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule for your specific vehicle.
Can I use this spark plug in a car engine?
This spark plug is generally intended for smaller engines, often found in motorcycles, scooters, or other powersports equipment up to 250cc. It is unlikely to be compatible with most car engines.
Troubleshooting
Engine misfires or runs rough
Check if the spark plug is correctly installed and gapped. Ensure it is the correct part number for your vehicle and that the ignition system is otherwise in good working order.
Difficulty starting the engine
Verify the spark plug is receiving adequate spark and is properly seated. A fouled or worn spark plug can hinder starting.
Poor fuel economy
A worn or incorrectly gapped spark plug can lead to inefficient combustion. Ensure the plug is new and correctly set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
Always verify that the NGK CR6HS (7023) spark plug is the correct replacement for your specific vehicle's make, model, and year. Consult your owner's manual or a reliable parts catalog.
This spark plug is suitable for engines up to 250cc.
Setup:
Ensure the engine is cool before beginning.
Locate the spark plug on your engine.
Use a spark plug socket wrench to carefully remove the old spark plug.
Check the gap on the new NGK CR6HS spark plug. Adjust if necessary to meet your vehicle's specifications (standard pre-set is 0.028 inches).
Gently thread the new spark plug into the engine by hand to avoid cross-threading.
Tighten the spark plug using the wrench. Do not overtighten.
Care:
Spark plugs are maintenance items and typically need replacement at recommended intervals.
Keep the spark plug and its surroundings clean during installation.
Inspect the spark plug for signs of wear or damage during routine maintenance.
