I've been running autolite in pretty much every domestic that comes through my shop for years since they’re usually the workhorse for Ford and GM tunes. Also, I haven’t seen any dip in the plug quality lately so that's a good sign. The iridiums are still pulling clean gaps right out of the box.

Dont use autolite garbage, this isnt uncommon with cheap plugs. Get NGK Iridums
Pulled the spark plugs and #3 has burnt away the centre electrode. Plugs aren't all that old. Plug brand is Auto lite. Any ideas on what may be the cause?
A quick search shows that autolite spark plugs don't seem to perform well in modern vehicles, you might have to go for a higher quality closer to OEM quality plugs.
Homie, do not run Autolite plugs.
Most Asian brands are pretty picky about spark plugs. You put Autolites in a 70s malaise-era Ford - not in a modern, sophisticated, computer controlled, turbocharged Honda.
Autolite are garbage plugs. Get denso or ngk plugs and gap them accordingly before installation. You can see signs of blow-by at the porcelain.
I agree with everyone saying NGK but I would also like to recommend you do not buy an autolite if you need a substitute, they have horrible quality control.
I have a 3.5 ecoboost. All 6 of my Ford plugs failed because of cracks. I replaced them with AutoLite iridium XP5863. They are all still going strong after over 50k miles.\n\nThe Ford plugs failed with a cylinder misfire error code. The engine would also bog down under havy accelaration
Probably going to need to pull them again within a couple years. Autolites are the absolute worst sparkplugs.
