The Honda 98076-56717 Spark Plug (BPR6HS) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for EL5000, ES6500, and EX5500 generators and GX360 horizontal shaft engines. As a factory-sourced component, this spark plug is manufactured to the exact specification Honda engineers matched to these machines at the time of production. Confirm your unit's serial number against the fitment table to ensure part number 98076-56717 is the correct application for your specific build.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Ignition Performance — sourced directly from Honda, this plug carries the correct heat range and electrode gap specification for the BPR6HS application, ensuring clean ignition across the operating load range of each fitted machine.
- Direct Replacement — engineered to drop into the cylinder head of EL5000, ES6500, and EX5500 generators and GX360 engines with no alteration required.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — listed for Honda EL5000, ES6500, and EX5500 generators as well as the GX360 horizontal shaft engine; verify your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct match for your unit.
- Engine Starting and Combustion Reliability — a worn or fouled spark plug leads to hard starting, misfires, and incomplete combustion; replacing it with a genuine OEM plug restores consistent ignition and smooth power delivery.
A spark plug delivers the precisely timed electrical spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber, converting fuel energy into mechanical power. The heat range of the plug — encoded in the BPR6HS designation — controls how quickly the electrode sheds heat during combustion, preventing both pre-ignition from overheating and fouling from running too cool. When a spark plug wears, cracks, or becomes fouled with carbon deposits, the result is unreliable starting, rough running, increased fuel consumption, and reduced output from the engine or generator.
