Atco 1247Hi folks, I have an Acto 1247 lawn mower - it looks to me like it may be complete, other than for a missing spark plug. Can anyone advise me as to which spark plug(s) would be correct for this mower? Many thanks

8 COM has long been unavailable but the Green Plug Co can provide a good substitute. 

My  personal experience Is that the NGK A6 , which is their equivalent to the 8 COM,  is not suited to old engines. Others may disagree !
