Guess an old guy in his late 70s can still be surprised and learn things!

Ordered a couple sets of spark plugs for my 68 Beetle (from a well-known VW mail order company). Received the plugs today and the "GERMAN" Bosch spark plugs were "MADE IN RUSSIA"!

Now that surprised me!

You got some of the last of them then. That stock is drying up since Bosch halted their business in Russia and those exports stopped.

Buying plugs for your bug use to be easy, "Bosch made in Germany", now they make so many diff. ones and so many numbers on the NKG plugs have changed and most of them say this is for your bug ? I don't know which plugs to get anymore ? :shock:
