60 g identification

[dhartley]

i just bought some 60g from auto value and the boxes say 60 g but the plugs themselves do not can anyone tell me how to tell them for sure

Look close below threads towards the tip end. It should be marked A/C 60G

Most if not all the 60-G's I've used lately don't have the 60-G markings on them , just a lot of small #'s on them.. I'll have to get the magnifiers out and see what the #'s are. I trust my supplier and the fact the box is labled 60-G's.

Well I could be wrong. I have 60g in mine, but when I replied above I just grabed a 12g off my desk and looked at it, I just assumed 60's were marked like the 12's.
What do they say about assuming things????

BTW I like your user name, it sounds familiar for some reason.

thx the boxes are ac delco and say 60g but not the plugs Dana

Here are the numbers off a new 60-G plug. Between the threads and tip:
A/C Delco----941 0----100 271 107 10.5V
The dashes are just a space between the numbers [there are no dashes on the plug itself]. This plug was in an individual A/C Delco box marked 60-G , There were 8 individual boxes in a larger box containing 8 plugs. The markings on the larger box : A/C Delco 60-G and the number 12563554[GM # ?]. No where on the plug itself are any markings that identify it as a 60-G plug, except the numbers posted above. It has been this way for quite sometime. In fact I don't recall ever receiving any plugs marked 60-G on the plug anywhere. The plugs we were purchasing previously were 11-G's and they had 11-G markings on the plug between the tip and the threads as did the 9-G's that were the plug of choice before the 11-G's were released. Confusing to say the least. Hope this info helps, just don't purchase any white box plugs claiming to be 60-G's.
