Default What kind of spark plugs should I get? Do I have to change anything else with the spark plugs?(no

wires???) Since the coil packs are right above the spark plug I don't need wires, but do I ever need to replace the 'thing' between the coil pack and the spark plug?

Oh yeah.. where can I get a Bentley CD?? Everyone I've found is sold out.

Thanks,
Tommy

Denso Iridium is the choice around here....bosch platinum +4 is hightly regarded as well.

Default whoah...there ya are again....where are you getting those plugs from??? I can't

find them anywhere. My stupid stock plug part # lists as an NGK 4-point ground, but physically it's not..in the book the number indicates that.

I figure changing out to those 3-point Cu's would be fine, plus the lower resistivity, lower cost than Denso's...that's for sure.


Thanks alot Mr. Peanut,
Mike

love seinfeld man
