What is the difference between a NGK B8ES and BR9ES Spark Plug? All of my quads takes one or the other.

I have several quads and would like to have to carry only one set of plugs with me. Would it hurt anything to run the B8ES plugs in all of them?

What is the correct plug for a 2001 Banshee with Toomey pipes?

Thanks!

A Banshee rolling off the showroom floor is equipped with a B8ES, a B9ES will burn just a bit colder, and may not burn all the gas that is fed into the cylinder. I always run the NGK B8ES, and have had no problems.The BR8ES is not a "Racing Plug" as others have said, it is simply a RESISTOR TYPE plug, which you don't need to run(it doesnt hurt anything, but it is more expensive.

So to answer your question, NO it wont hurt anything to run the B8ES, actually you will be putting the "stock" plug back in the bike. Hope this helps....
