Yes. Spark plugs are designed for specific engines and can cause erratic performance when not mated properly. Some engines are more prone to misfiring than others. Starting can become a very big problem. All plugs are not created equal. Some are warmer and vice versa. Every plug has also a built in resistance which can become a problem, should the resistance be for instance too high from the outset, as resistance increases as the plug is used, due the gap increasing during use.
