I bought a set of spark plugs the other day, and just wanted to know something. Okay, like it shows in the diagram. I just wanted to know if I put them in right or not ? I am newb to rotary engines. Help, I don't want something to happen especially with me running tonight. Lol.

The black ones are the leading, and the red ones are the trailing.

Trailing are the "T" top one

Leading are the "L" Bottom ones

So how you have it is wrong.

Take the Front Top one and install it into the Rear Bottom, then install the Rear bottom one that you just took out into the Front Top.

The Rotor housing are marked "T" "L"

Just a question on that, running rating 10s on Trailing and Leading cause any problems?

If you have a fairly stock car, then you'll have less than desirable gas mileage and the plugs will foul quick.

What are the pluses of it? And if i go holding higer RPM, will the sparks not foul up as quick?

Unless you are running some serious boost (i.e. single turbo), its doubtful you'll heat up the plugs enough for them not to foul quickly.

Snailz

Oooo ok
so what are the bonuses of it? :P

Protection against pre-ignition. If you aren't familiar with spark plug heat ranges, I suggest you do a little reading before throwing different heat ranges on your car. That way you can make an educated selection as to what your car should run.
