Problem

The 114-3365 Prechamber is internally eroding at the bottom between the flame holes. This early hour failure is causing high CO emissions, decreased engine efficiency, and is possibly contributing to detonation problems. This program allows replacement after a failure has occurred with the higher temperature prechamber.
