NGK 2359 Standard Marine Spark Plug BPR5EFS-13, Surface Discharge, Interchange Mercury 33-8M0095454
The NGK 2359 is a standard nickel spark plug built on NGK's proven surface discharge design, offering reliable ignition performance for engines that call for this plug type. It uses a solid copper core center electrode for superior heat dissipation, broad heat range, and consistent conductivity, paired with a nickel center electrode tip and a standard nickel ground electrode for dependable, repeatable sparking over the plug's service life. The plug body is treated with corrosion-resistant plating, which keeps threads and contact surfaces from seizing so the plug installs and removes cleanly at service time. As a surface discharge design, the NGK 2359 is built as an OE cornerstone plug, carrying forward decades of proven NGK ignition technology rather than an experimental or novelty design. It carries a resistance rating of 5,000 ohms to help suppress ignition noise. The NGK 2359 is interchangeable with Mercury part number 33-8M0095454, making it a straightforward replacement option where that Mercury number is specified. It ships sold individually, so order the quantity that matches your engine's cylinder count. Always check your engine and maintenance manual for the correct spark plug and only use plugs recommended by your engine's original equipment manufacturer, since using the wrong plug can reduce performance, lower fuel economy, or cause engine damage.
