Don't mess with anything else till you got back to where you were. Plug type is not so important at the moment. Confirm or comment. It was running when you got it? Running O.K (smoothly all cylinders)? What made you mess with it? Exactly what did you do? No spark at a plug with it out? Spark at the ...
