Default changed plugs

I thought I would just post this review for plugs.

I switched from the NGK 7173(non insulated) to an insulated NGK 6097 (BKR7E). I have driven 100 miles, and no indicator lights are on. I was also getting a check engine light along with the green key light.

However, I think they(6097) may be the same heat as the stock plug. Ah, I live in cooler temps, so I think I will be ok.

I am happy for now.

I got this as well, but fixed it like you did. It was because the 7173 are non resister plugs and the 6097 are. I was getting multiple misfire codes and my Immobilizer light was going haywire.

7173 and 6097 are different heat ranges. i fouled out a plug when i made the switch, so i went back to 7173's.
