<VV> Spark Plugs...

[J R Read_HML]

The difference between 44FF and 44FFS (if I recall correctly) is the length 
of the threads on the base of the plugs.  I forget which is longer - but 
I'll check my stock.  I think that I have some of each.  I can tell you that 
the longer one is the more desirable and I think (but will have to check) 
that the S is the longer one.  I think it stands for extended reach.  It has 
been a long time since I've had to replace any plugs, so I just don't 
remember at the moment.
