  • Informative. But, copper (next to silver) is the best conductor of electricity.  These silly multi-electrode, fancy metal plugs to nothing for combustion. You should have put the factory recommended AC plugs back in.

  • you're actually right about that. the factory plugs are platinum, and the bosch ones worked okay. they were later replaced with AC delco pro iridium plugs, and they worked well.

  • Dielectric grease on the threads? Not good It will make the car misfire.

  • i've only ever had that happen with older coil/distro ignitions, or if someone used a LOT.

  • Good. Thanks for doing this it's useful. Although you made a big assumption about the plugs that they would have the correct sparking width when you fit them. If this were incorrect it would make a big difference to how your engine were to run. otherwise thanks!

  • bosch plat +4 plugs are always pre-gapped.

  • you're not supposed to use dielectric grease on the spark plug threads, use anti-seize (this is, if the head is aluminum)

  • Thank you so much!!! I just got quoted $200 to get these replaced!!!! You saved me money thank you again!

  • Hi, I would like to know if you need to adjust the anything on a spark plug or can you install them directly from the box... and wich spark plug is better?? iradium, titanium or anything else?! Thanks

  • Fuck Bosch!

    Puro NGK!

  • damn! this is very educative please post more of this. thank you

  • The only spark plug that would make difference is Robert Krupa's Firestorm spark plug. Look for it on Youtube. All the others are -/+2%.

  • White soot means the engine is running lean and very hot. Just use what the manufacturer recommends for the spark plugs.

  • nice end, i guess

    im pretty sure you really needed those platinum+4 spark plugs because standard copper/platinum plugs won't allow your car to idle properly
