AC Delco MR43LTS Iridium Spark Plug - Interchanges with NGK TR5, Donovan 203264
The AC Delco MR43LTS is an iridium spark plug built for reliable cold starting, quick acceleration, and smooth engine performance. The electrode uses a nickel alloy tip paired with a copper core, and a ribbed suppressor seal is engineered for durability and consistent performance over the life of the plug. Iridium construction gives the MR43LTS a high melting point and strong resistance to the extreme heat and pressure inside the combustion chamber, helping the plug maintain a stable spark and resist electrode wear longer than plugs using softer tip materials.
The MR43LTS is built to AC Delco's standard fit, form, and function for applications that call for this plug or its cross-referenced equivalents, including the NGK TR5 and Donovan 203264. It is a direct, drop-in option for engines and rebuild kits specifying any of those part numbers.
