Default need smaller ignition plugs

gentlemen, I have a Brison 3.2 with electronic ignition. I am looking for an ignition unit that has a smaller spark plug and a smaller plug cap so that all that ignition stuff does not hang way down below the level of the cowl. This does not look scale at all. Do the more compact units run as well ? Your help would be appreciated.

The Brison runs perfectly when adapted to using the NGK CM-6 spark plug. This is much shorter than the standard Champion plug. The adaptation requires a new ignition or spark plug cap, with a simple change in the ignition being the easiest of the two to accomplish. A reducer is required to accomodate the CM-6 spark plug.

Send a PM to"Antique" here in RCU, or go to the gas engine forum and look for posts by BadAzzMax (Milton). Send him a note as well. Both can deal with your situation.

Corry,

FYI,

I've performed the described procedure on Brison engines many times and you will have no problems doing the same. Better to remove the head to install the reducer insert since JB Weld and Locktite sleeve lock compond has been found to be the best means of assuring the insert remains in the head when you perform spark plug inspections and changes. Removing the head provides the opportunity to wipe away any excess adhesive inside the combustion chamber during the installation process.
