Autolite to other brands  email this discussion to a friend?

bradjan (1) 6 years ago

I have a commerical air compressor that has a V8 engine[Ford I think] with four sparkplugs on one side and an air manifold on the other side.It has autolite # 26 sparkplugs in it.How do I cross reference these to other makes,[such as AC or Champpion or NKG, etc].The rig has been sitting outdoors for a few years,It starts and runs at high RPM with the choke par out part way but stalls when it idles down under load as the pressure builds up.I think it needs a tune up.

You should be able to find a cross referencing chart at any automotive store. The high tickover and low speed stall sounds like badly adjusted or worn points. The points can bounce open at speed sometimes but at low speed the gap might be to small or even not opening at all.

I'll replace them along with the plugs and see how it runs. Thank You,Brad
