Re: spark plugs opinion given here..RE: Anyone looking for parts?



I've always used the NGK's in my rice-mobile (toyota pickup) since they ship
with them from the factory.  However, for my 3 kraut-mobiles, it's bosch and
nothing else.  I've been using the Platinum 4 prong in my rocco for the last
2 months (12k miles) and was able to see about a 5-8mpg gain. I recently
pulled them to give them a look and they are almost as clean as they were
when I put them in.
