Spark Plug Cover Differences

[Bud92gsx]

I've been looking through the pictures alot lately and have seen a couple different spark plug covers..I wanted to know what spark plug covers came with what engine..

Theres the cover with the line going through it..And then There is the mitsubishi spark plug cover..

I just wanted to know what the difference is, and what years the different covers came from??Any help will be greatly appreciated..

Any Talon I have owned with the 4G63 had the one with the line. I think the one that says Mitsubishi was on the Evo's, but I have never been able to confirm that.

 

[Bud92gsx]

That's why I made this thread..Was to figure it out..And anyone who see's it will know the answer to that question..

The one with mitsubishi on it, and the triple diamond logo I have allways seen on 2g eclipse engines.

 

[Joseph503]

My plug cover said Mitsubishi and my car is a 98 Spyder GST

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Every 2Ga Eclipse I have seen has had the line one on it. Is it a 2Gb Eclipse thing?

 

[dsmtnr]

I have just the line on my 1G

 

[dsmrebel084]

Mine has Mitsubishi on it and its a 1g

The tricky thing about them is that they are SO easy to change out, and they cracked or broke SO often, that these days it's hard to tell. I do know for a fact that at least one of my old 95 Talons had the original one, which had the line on it. It is now on my 97 Talon though.

I dunno. Every 4g63 in a 2g Eclipse I have ever seen was the one with mitsubishi on it.

Every 2g talon, and every 1g DSM had the bronze colored one with the redline down the middle. Of course, the bronze colored one with the red line, is easier to find on a junkyard and people that want it on their would replace a worn out one with it. But mostly around my neck of the woods rednecks wouldn't waste money on it.

A bornze colored cover..I've never seen one..Although I've never seen the one with the line on it in person either..Just in the recent photo's people uploaded..

Mine is the Mits cover..So I would like to figure out if it's a 1g thing and a talon thing for the cover witht he redline on it..

ASA shows the 1g's having the three diamonds logo with the word Mitsubishi on it and the 2g's having the one with the line through it.

 

[Bud92gsx]

You looked in ASA...

Cheater..

But Dan said his laser has the line on it..

I was just told that the special order cars came with mits on the spark plug cover..It could be true who knows..

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Dan's could have been swapped out 100 times by now too. I would guess that most of them on DSM's today aren't the ones they came with from the factory.

Here's a picture of mine when I bought my car ('95 Talon), bone stock. It's the one with the line.

 

[Awdspyderman]

i have a 99' spyder and mine came with the cover that says mitsubishi. How i remember is that when i first bought it with 60,000 orignal miles on it, my first mod was the stock spark plugs wires were swapped out to a hi-po set and i happen to overtighten the cover.=) that's why i remember hope it helps

 

[Bud92gsx]

So it must have been an eclipse only thing..That the spark plug cover(mits) came on..The talons and lasers must have been the one with the line..

I got mine with 77k miles So I bet it was origanal to the car..

 

[snowborder714]

I can try to look up the Talon at some point next week when I get my other computer with the Chrysler parts program fired up. I don't have anything for the Laser though.


And anyone who posts in here with what theirs came with, I'm not going to believe unless they are the original owner and have pictures (like Seth).

 

[Bud92gsx]

I bought mine with 77k miles I'm the 3rd owner of the car(I think)..And all the mods besides a boost controller were done by me..So I beleive that mine is origanal to the car....

I could be dead worng, but, then again I could be correct..

 

[Boostinsideways]

I've never seen the solid black cover with the line.

All the ones with the line I have seen were on 1g engines with the sorta of light bronze valve cover with red letters, and the spark plug cover matched the color of the valve cover, and the lines on it were red.

Chrysler states that Lasers and Talons have a difference in cover part numbers from 1g to 2g, that is it. I cannot tell what the difference is, but for sure they have different part numbers. More searching....





MD124766 is for 1G.
MD316137 is for the 2G.

Is is the one with the red line and the one with no color in the line?

 

[Lofty]

Unfortunately my parts program wont give me that information.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Do you have ASA or caps Scott? Cause I could check ASA like Brian did, but It might not give me a picture..

 

[eligst21]

My 97 gst has mitsu logo on it and i bought it with 70k miles on it. My sisters 97 gsx has the one with the redline on it. I think that one was swapped out though. Pretty sure 2gb's came with the mistu logo on it.
