A spark plug which provides reliable prevention of adhesion and accumulation of carbon on an insulator, includes a center electrode extending in the direction of an axis CL1, a ceramic insulator having an axial hole which extends in the direction of the axis CL1 and in which the center electrode is provided, a cylindrical metallic shell provided externally of the outer circumference of the insulator and having a support portion formed on the inner circumferential surface thereof, and a ground electrode extending from a front end portion of the metallic shell. The insulator has a stepped portion supported by the support portion of the metallic shell, and a leg portion formed forward of the stepped portion. A space SP formed between the leg portion of the insulator and the inner circumferential surface of the metallic shell has a volume of 100 mm3 to 300 mm3 inclusive. |
