Default AutoLite Plugs

I just changed the oil etc. on my 650 and thought I would do the plugs. I could only get Autolites locally so I gave them a shot. While setting the gap I noticed that on one of them the insulator was sliding up and down the center. When It slid down the only thing holding it on was the electrode.

Lucky for me the dealer had installed NGK Iridiums, so I cleaned those up and reinstalled. I will not be using Autolites in anything now. Just my 2 cents.

Good info kman. Thanks! I always use the NGKs and have no issues with them either.
