The Honda 98076-56917 Spark Plug (BPR6HS-10) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for Honda EL5000, ES6500, EV4000, and EX5500 generators. As a direct Honda OEM component, this spark plug is manufactured to the exact specification Honda calls for in these generators, ensuring the engine starts reliably and runs cleanly. Verify your generator's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes parts at specific serial breaks. When ignition performance drops, replacing the spark plug with part number 98076-56917 is the correct first step to restoring a strong, consistent spark.
Key Features
- Correct Heat Range and Gap — genuine OEM specification means this plug delivers the precise heat range and electrode gap Honda engineers specified for these generators, supporting clean combustion and efficient fuel use
- Direct OEM Replacement — sourced directly from Honda, this spark plug installs into the cylinder head of EL5000, ES6500, EV4000, and EX5500 generators exactly as the original did
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates parts at defined serial breaks; confirm your generator's serial number against the compatibility table to ensure this is the correct plug for your unit
- Restored Ignition Performance — a worn or fouled spark plug causes hard starting, rough running, and increased fuel consumption; installing a fresh plug restores a strong spark at every firing cycle
A spark plug is the ignition source at the heart of every combustion cycle in a generator engine. At the moment of ignition, it delivers a high-voltage electrical spark across its electrode gap to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder, driving the piston and ultimately turning the alternator to produce power. When a spark plug wears or fouls — through carbon buildup, electrode erosion, or improper heat range — the engine misfires, struggles to start, and produces less power output than the generator is rated for. Replacing it with the correct OEM plug keeps ignition consistent across every load cycle the generator encounters.
