I'm a new SOARER owner i've only had my GT-L now for about 4weeks anyway i need news plugs.The bloke i brought it off told me i'd be needing to get new plugs.Anyway i found these brandnew spark plugs in the boot are these the right plugs for my SOARER GT-L NGK BP5ES-11

I dont think they will fit, as the hex head may be too large to fit down the plug tubes (and then fit a plug socket over)
Here's what that part number means:
B= 14mm thread dia, 20.8mm hex head (correct is BK = 14mm thread dia, 16.0mm hex head) P= Projected centre electrode insulator 5= Heat range (best is 6 for a internally stock non boosted motor) E= 19.0mm thread reach (correct) S= Standard copper core electrode 11= Preset Gap (correct)
Give it a go, but make sure you have a telescopic magnet to get them back out if they arent going to fit.

Get irridiums - those coppers won't last long and its a pain to have to replace them all the time just to save $50 or $100, plus you'll get a better spark.
