When i was working at partsource back in the day, we had many customers coming with problems and complaints. The problems were with miss firing or not firing at all, other were they had a problem with there car, shop pulled the plugs and the center electrode had fallen into the cylinder. Even here at speedtech the techs had encountered many peoples cars with problems and it's related to those plugs. I've even seen the electrodes at the bottom of cases they come in.

They are not good plugs, and i'd only recommend NGK's or DENSO's as a replacement.

Of course i've never used the plugs so i havnt seen it first hand on my car but the stuff i've seen, been told, and had to deal with is not good.

^even the platinum 4 +?

I have heard about that with the 'basic bosch' but nothing with the 4+.

thoughts?

ok, enough evidence found now to stick with stock plugs.

I would be changing out that oil, oil does break down just sitting in the pan.

Of course it's all up to you.

It also breaks down just sitting in a bottle too. There are worse things to worry about before the oil. Like when people obsess about cell phone radiation or whatever and then ignore the fact that their excessive eating will give them a heart attack long before they develop cell phone cancer. Pennywise poundfoolish right?

uh sure?
