Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I searched and could not find anything. And no, I don't have a service manual yet.

Does anyone know or have access to the recommended bosch (or equivalent) spark plugs for my 1980 230G with a 4cyl M115 engine? The old replacement plugs I have in there now are Champion N-71, which have either been discontinued or renamed, and are probably the wrong ones anyway.

Thanks as always for the advice.

Spark Plugs are a choice of:

Beru 14 - 7D or 14 - 7DU,

Bosch W7D or W7DC; M/Benz part No: 002 159 2003,

Champion N9Y; M/Benz part No: 001 159 9503,

Any of the above plugs are to be set at 0.8mm gap.

I put splitfire plugs in my 230 GES a year ago and hope not to change them for years.

Not cheap but car starts on the button and goes well. One day I must compare mine with another 230 just to see how good or bad mine is.
