Yep, first thing I tell folks is to toss the white plug and use an NGK. Works every time!!

An even bigger problem with the white plugs is that some of them have under size threads that can cause the threads to strip out of your cylinder. Major bad!!!

When I test these engines I do so just as they would arrive at your door should you buy one so there aren't any mods on mine. Both of the engines I ran had the white plugs in them but I will be replacing them prior to flying them. I would suggest you do the same. You can pick the NGK plugs up at NAPA or any small engine repair place.
