As in my reply on the other thread I have avoided Champion for many years and prefer NGK. Take your D16 to Repco and they will cross reference it to some options. Autolite plugs have been good in my engines and of course the NGK and I have an old KLG that has been reliable as well. I just dont like Champion.
At the end of the day they all can fail I guess but I've heard of a lot of Champions be no good out of the box or with a few hours on them.

Thanks for the information John. I spoke with another 2 blokes yesterday and both don't use D16 plugs anymore. Rudy

I dont know if this is of help or not but this site has a number of plug cross reference catalogs.

Hi all never had a problem yet with champion on a stationary engine  . I would never use a champion in a car only NGK   , I have used champions to keep the rain out . They do this job well
