1 post is fine, maybe go for platinum, .44 is the gap
ACDelco or NGK Iridium are my choice.
E3's seem to be popular with their 'diamond fire'
I'll add the forgotten zero.... 0.044 is the gap recommended.Quote:

The plugs that came on my car seem to be working fine. I suppose I will probably go back with them.
I am kind of a simpleton, I suppose. I don't see the numbers in getting super high grade plugs if the originals are working properly. Not to mention, I am not doing the whole high performance thing or any of that.
hey gene, i finally changed my plugs at 80000 miles. on mikes advice i bought the NGK BKR6EIX-11 Iridiums. $6 per plug. gapped at 44 and I couldnt be happier. noted difference in gas mileage and slight acceleration increase.
do remember, his car is practically new, he wont notice much. once he hits about 35-40K miles....Quote:
