Abstract
A spark plug for internal combustion engines is provided which includes a porcelain insulator which is disposed inside a housing and extends outside a front end of the porcelain insulator. An annular ground electrode is secured to a front end portion of the housing. A pocket is created between a nose of the porcelain insulator and the housing. The housing has formed therein a plurality of vent holes which are located outside the ground electrode in a radial direction of the housing and communicate between the pocket and a combustion chamber of the engine. The vent holes include a first vent hole and a second vent hole which are different in opening area from each other, thereby enhancing scavenging of the pocket to ensure the stability of operation of the spark plug.
