Description

Bosch 79022 spark plug for the 1981-1984 Volkswagen Jetta 4-cylinder 1.7L, the 1984-1992 Jetta 4-cylinder 1.8L and other vehicles fires the spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture in each cylinder. This conventional Bosch spark plug pairs a nickel center electrode with a copper core.

Heavy-duty yttrium-enhanced nickel-copper center electrode for longer performance life
Copper core gives a broader heat range to resist pre-ignition and fouling
Nickel-plated rolled threads resist corrosion
Angled, ribbed insulator design prevents misfire due to flash-over
