The correct MS number for stock plugs is: MS 35909-6.

This will need to be edited as the correct original
designation is: AER72S

I ordered a single plug from a

Sorry, but this isn't the right one. The correct plug
is a 1/2 inch reach, 14mm thread. I called Autolite,
Allied Signal, 401-434-7000, and after a lengthy
discussion, found the 2344 Autolite plug to be the
proper plug.

One of the numbers tells the heat range, one tells it
is a resitor or non resistor, and one is for the
military shielded type waterproof plug, as opposed to
the several other types that are made for other
vehicles.

No problem, thanks for pointing out our page had the
wrong number!!
