What's the difference between eyquem c42s and c62 plugs?I ask because mine has c62's
and I have some cold starting issues and I believe the c42s are the standard plugs.

According to Eyquem's technical data, C62 is their current plug in the heat range equivalent to the plugs originally fitted.

However, since engines tend to run hotter on unleaded fuel than they did on leaded, a cooler grade of plug than that originally recommended by Citroen is advisable nowadays.

I don't think that you should be fitting C42s, as they are a hotter grade of plug, really only suitable for trundling around town... ;)

I always found eyquem to go off quickly and were a pig to start. NGK-B7s all the time now

Must admit I've always liked Ngk's in general and also denso plugs.
You prefer a b7 Sean do you do a lot of hard/fast driving,would a b6 be more suitable for my mix of town/fast A road Driving (I lost my loony driving hormonesa long time ago.
