difference between the BKR7E-11 and BKR7ES-11 is that the BKR7E-11 has
a
V-grooved center electrode. V-Power spark plugs are a patented design
by
NGK to improve ignitability and reduce quenching. Ignitability is
improved
by the V-groove cut in the center electrode parallel to the ground
electrode, this directs the spark to to the edge of the center
electrode
thus exposing it to more of the air/fuel mixture. Quenching is reduced
in
much the same manner, drawing the spark to the edge of the center and
ground electrodes reduces the surface area available to quench the
spark.

The 11 is the standard for the gap size.
