Got new plugs
Why won't he new one fit into the plug wire?
I see the difference with the thread on top.
Did I buy the wrong ones?

That smooth cap just unscrews right off. Then it will fit into the plug boot.

I wish plug manufacturers would just put that on the box or package - Don't feel bad, its probably the most common 'issue' with replacing spark plugs.  I see it pop up here often, and a google search provides plenty of people seeking the same answer.  I too had been stumped at one time by this many years ago when replacing plugs on my first moped build - found my answer on a spark plug FAQ for autolite or something, but it was no where on the packaging.  :confused:

Brisk or the other ones he liked were the PowerMadd E3.36 which can be found at O'Reilly Auto Parts in the states.
