The DENSO 3178 is a standard replacement spark plug engineered to deliver reliable ignition performance across a wide range of gasoline engines. Designed to OEM specifications, this plug meets or exceeds original equipment requirements for a direct, hassle-free installation.

DENSO's proprietary U-Groove ground electrode design exposes more of the spark to the air-fuel mixture, promoting more complete combustion for improved engine efficiency, throttle response, and fuel economy. The nickel alloy construction ensures consistent performance and durability throughout its service life.

Key Features:

  • U-Groove Ground Electrode – Enhances ignitability by exposing the spark kernel to the air-fuel mixture
  • Nickel Alloy Electrodes – Provide dependable performance and resistance to wear
  • OEM-Quality Construction – Manufactured to original equipment specifications for a direct-fit replacement
  • Corrugated Ribs on Insulator – Help prevent flashover and improve insulation performance
  • Copper Core Center Electrode – Improves heat dissipation for stable operation across varying engine loads
