I used the BR8EIX plugs on my FireFly 447. They have 35 hours on them. its Idleing a little rough. Should I spend the money on BR8EIX or just use
B8ES?
Thanks

The long life advantage of iridium plugs would seem to be lost in the two stroke application. Between the extra cost, the fact that they aren't solid top, and the risk of damaging the plug when regapping them for the 447, I wouldn't use them. Do you have a spark plug cleaner? If you could clean them up and regap them you might get another 35 hours. The Denso iridium plugs used in the HKS last 200 hours, but the don't have the oil contamination that a two stroke engine provides.
