I got a service kit for a minty 2001 Honda Rancher 350 I got and the spark plug looks like this. Is this normal? Obviously gapping it doesn’t look like it’s even possible. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-19470-402908-img_7269.jpeg)

It’s missing an important part.

I've seen that on an outboard motor, but it was a two stroke.

It’s missing an important part. It doesn’t look like it was broken off. Pretty sure it was made that way.

You're gonna need a coil upgrade to run that plug! ![[Linked Image]](https://d2cbg94ubxgsnp.cloudfront.net/Pictures/480xAny/2/4/1/522241_c0345133tesla_coil_experiment_1899_951849.jpg)

After searching I'm suspect. Get the number on your current one and you can cross reference.

Do a google search for the correct spark plug and you’ll see what’s missing. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-13529-402914-img_2091.png)

It runs great with the new plug. Apparently it’s a non-resistor spark plug which increases the voltage at the edge of the spark plug and provides quite a bit more power. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-19470-402915-img_7272.jpeg)

Que that, What in the cornbread hell meme... That’s what I thought when I opened it. I probably thought the same thing about smart phones though.
