Default Re: Spark plugs

you dont get any horsepower with a spark plug...stick with a reputable, good quality brand,such as denso,ngk or ac...ive had bad experience in the past with splitfire plugs,and i do not recommend them.

Come to think of it...I would blame the splitfire plugs for messing up my Mercruiser engine in my boat! They'll be in the trash soon!

Default Re: Spark plugs

I believe if you talk about a specific plug, they are different for the '90-92 motors and the '93-95's. I'm pretty sure NGK has different plug types listed for each, though you can get them in the same heatrange and iridium for both, just a different number. I can't recall what the difference was, though, I wanna say one has a washer and one doesn't? Or one has a tapered seat and one doesn't? I can't recall...

On the antisieze, I've never done that to any car. Guess I better get some and pull the plugs out and apply it.

That's it, the ones for my `94 are tapered and the 90-92's are flat.
