Spark Plugs for S40 1.8 122hp 2003 yr LPG Liquid Injection
Hi all,
I have a question for S40 1.8 122hp from 2003 year. The car is with a LPG system by Vialle with liquid Liquid Injection and I mostly drive it on LPG. What are the suggested type of Spark Plugs by Volvo for this car? Are there a type of plugs that you prefer for this engine driven with such LPG? |

As said many times elsewhere hotsteel, Denso Single core copper KPR20's are the best performing value for money a VOLVO LPG engine can have. At £10 for 4, you can't beat it.

I found K20PBR - I guess this is what you mean, I will try them first. As I am driving around 40000 km per year my issue is not that much the cost of the plugs rather the performance and the consumption of the engine. In the same denso site they are recomending IK20TT for LPG. Can anyone share an opinion about their performance with an liquid injection LPG system? |

It's often said that lpg converted engines need a smaller gap setting on the plugs, so based on that, i would go with single ground electrode plug rather than multi ground electrode, so that you can adjust the gap yourself !

Thanks for the advice. Is it valid also for lpg engines that are with liquid propane injection (like Vialle LPI)?

May be worth asking in this section https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=183 for more info on LPG, CNC, LNG, etc
