Ignition specialist NGK Spark Plugs product training sessions at the MechanEx show in Manchester have been hailed a resounding success.

The leading supplier of original equipment (OE) spark plugs, glow plugs and NTK Lambda and other engine management sensors held the sessions on its new specially designed stand throughout the two-day show at Event City and attracted big audiences of technicians to each presentation.

There were five training sessions each day presented by Tim Howes, NGK Deputy General Manager – Supply Chain & Technical Service, each focusing on either ignition products SUCH AS spark plugs, glow plugs and ignition coils, or vehicle electronics including , NTK Lambda, NOx, EGT, MAP and MAF sensors.

Mark Hallam, Marketing Manager at NGK said, “The technical training sessions proved to be extremely popular. We attracted big attendances for all of them and trained over 250 garages across the two days. In some cases, it was standing-room only as technicians gathered to learn more about our products and the outside factors that can affect their performance.” He added, “At NGK we have always recognised the importance of providing top quality product training for workshop owners and technicians and it was great to have the opportunity to share our expertise with visitors to MechanEx. We designed a new stand to accommodate all those who attended the training sessions and the feedback we received was very positive. The attendees really appreciated Tim’s presentations and they all received a free LED work lamp to use back at their workshops.”

In addition to the training seminars NGK staff were also on-hand to provide more details about the company’s products and latest initiatives.
