    NGK. I used them in my '84 Mondial QV and they were fantastic.

    Guys -- it's a 3.2 using the 12mm thread plug size (so NGK DR8EA or DR8EIX)

    Paul -- You can check this for yourself at www.ngksparkplugs.com

    (Here in the US, most of us DIYer use www.clubplug.net for getting our NGK spark plugs, but for your location the additional shipping may not be worth it.)

    I just changed the Champion A6G's that I had in my 88 3.2.
    I put in NGK D8EVX. This is the Platinum plug, and is NON resistive. The Mondial 3.2 328, and 348 have resistors built into the plug caps so putting in a resistive plug could make things worse.
    Starting is easier and seems a little smoother over the Champions.
    Even if I am wrong about the resistive caps, I have heard no interference on the radio since changing them.
    And they are cheaper than the DR8EIX iridium or Bosch XR4DC

    Further to my post below, if you have problems finding these plugs at an auto shop, try a bike dealers. These plugs are used throughout the Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki range and might be cheaper for bikes ....

    Reviving a really old thread here....

    The NGK DR8EAs are available from NAPA stores for $2.29. 8 new ones on my Mondial 3.2. One of my plug extenders had cracked and I could see that it had been shorting to the head, causing the mis-fire that recently popped up. All fixed now, she's runnin' great.
