    Hello,
    I need spark plug extenders for my '86 Mondial. Shopping around I found that Kingsborne has these at a very good price. Does anyone have any experience with these extenders? Are they a good quality product?

    Thanks in advance.

    Bought a set of them for my 86 last year. They fit much more securely than what was in there before. They seem to be better designed than the originals too. There is more of a gap between the metal connectors inside and the wall of the extenders. I would assume this would lessen the chance of arcing and burn through. I would recommend them to anyone.

    Never mind; I found them easily!
    Any more feedback on this non-OEM part?

    I ended up eliminating the extenders. Another member, "jlc308", sent me these photos and part numbers of his set up. I copied it. The parts are also from Kingsborne.Good luck.

    I read in the 308 section that some of these extenders have or need resistors. Does the Mondial 3.2 need resistors in the extenders?
    Thanks

    I think the 3.2 uses 107mm, 0 ohm non-resistor extenders. The earlier models use 100mm, 2 or 4 ohm extenders. I'm not 100% sure on this. Maybe some one with more knowledge will chime in. Hope this helps.
