I own 2 IG2000P Kipor generators that have been working great for the last three years. I now need to replace the original spark plugs. They are a Bosch UR5 R6. I have contacted all the nationwide auto parts suppliers, they tell me they cannot find a plug to cross reference. After contacting Bosch, I am told that the UR5 was never distributed to the United States and I may need to find a supplier in Europe ? I have also been looking for an Authorized Kipor service dealer in Texas (preferrably Fort Worth) again without any success.
Does anyone have suggestions that can get me up and going again ?

P.S. The plugs are a 10MM thread

Thanks for the link. I recently bought a Kipor 6000 and if needed will now know where to get parts.

The previous distributor for the Kipor line, Coast Distribution, is no longer partnered with them. There is a new distributor (NTP Distribution), but they're still in the midst of setting up a dealer network. I found all this out when trying to get some information / support on my IG2000P.

Here's the article where I discovered the new distributor name

Here is the new Kipor website
