yes very civil.

you should know that a topic like this is going to stray.
questions will get asked, and answers need to be facts for people to believe them.

my intentions are really to protect DLE from those who aren't in the know. i have flying buddies who have never been on the net, and some that go on the net to find the easiest answer to their problem, but even with links posted to them for answers, they won't look at them because they are lazy.

what i would like to see is DLE include a warning if need be on what to expect from their plug if used in a certain type aircraft.
one fella at our field was told by the old timers who never go on the net to do some sort of breakin on his DL50 and kept having crappy results....he then went by the guidlines from someone on the net.
VVRC supplies the NGK CM6 to assure a positive experience for the DLE user.
Tower or Hobbico must not read the internet forums at all though as they sell the DLE CM6 as a replacement plug............you'd think if they were informed that they would only sell the NGK CM6 or the iridioum version right?
My experience comes servicing DL/DLE engines on my country.
About NGK spark plug, i have some pcs to replace ONLY when my customer-friends wants.
When needed to replace i ALWAYS mount a RCEXL CM6 or ICM6 . Almost a thousand stainless steel top RCEXL CM6 spark mounted (trouble free in ALL cases) , and recently (the ICM6 comes to the market before this summer) almost two hundred ICM6 (trouble free in ALL cases).

On CRRCpro engines (GP26R, GP50R, GF55I) with stock ignition, on the JBA15G engine , the J50G engine , and FG36, when the ICM6 is fitted, idle and transition is smoother, and i 'feel' engine runs 'better'. Much better spark than fitted on the factory. Also all my friends and 'customers' of repaired engines let me know the same 'feeling' about ICM6.
I've made a lot of test before posting here, i'm not a newbie , and also i have and i've read the specifications from manufacturer about quality controls before the ICM6 comes to the market. I'm impressed about RCEXL job with ICM6.
