NGK xd05f spark plug caps

<< < (2/3) > >>

I bought my ones for my FJ1200 from B&C Express

https://www.bandcexpress.co.uk/buy/NGK-XD05F-NGK-Sparkplug-Cap/XD05F.251#eq1

On my CB750F2 & my CB550s I used these angled ones for #1 & #2 cylinders & the long straight ones for cylinders #2 & #3

Inside of the plug caps there's a 5k ohm resistive element that can go open circuit. I've had this situation on my Exup1000. So I replaced the faulty element with a length of brazing rod & they're good to go  ;)

Are these them?

No that's the vd05f. I got mine from there, they refunded my order for the xd05f after 6 months of being on order as they didn't know when they would get any more stock.

Sesman:
There are some serious supply and manufacturing problems at NGK. Next official import of XDO5F plug caps is June.

Oddjob:
Oh those, the long 90 degree ones commonly used on the outside cylinders.

Found 2 black ones of those yesterday, they are genuine NGK as they are far too old for them to be copies.

I could test them for resistance if you like, in case your supplier lets you down.

A little tatty but I'm reasonably good at tidying things up so they may be ok.

Sesman:
Thanks oddjob, that’s very generous of you, but I’ll pass and leave them for a more needy cause. I have some good used items, but I’m tidying up the 500 to match the refurbished coils.

I bought a set for the 550 last year from Greenspark with no issues whatsoever. I understand it’s the post pandemic supply Vs demand and material availability problems. I suspect they are made in China, so maybe that’s an additional issue.
