Has anyone tried them in the 16V? The BKR6EIX are listed as an equvialent plug to the PFR6B on spark-plugs.co.uk and the price difference is not very big.

I'm hearing a knocking sound from the right side of the engine on acceleration and hope it is the ignition system that needs some overhaul.
If it is still there after new ignition parts I'll probably have to surrender and let a pro alfa mech continue Embarassed

The background is I recently restored both heads and changed all valves on that side after a cambelt failure. (Crankshaft nut fell off causing the belt to jump a couple of teeth) I changed the big end piston bearings shortly after hearing the noise but now it is back as loud as ever. Crying or Very sad

Thanks

Martin

Could it be a sticky lifter?

I'm wondering about the same, anyone tried them by now?
How are they compared to the Iridium ones?
