vs
Spark plug Autolite or BERU
I now have the new plugs which are autolite gapped at .027 as it is suggested by autolite and also in the Bentley book.
The truck is currently using Autolite XP5245 iridiums. Normally I would go with something from NGK but I figured if the Autolites were a decent price I would get them and they would probably last the life of the truck
Pros: decent price
Part number: XP5245
I have the beru side firing and they work just fine.
Pros: work just fine
If its just painted like some cheap plugs such as some autolites then yes its needed.
Pros: needed for painted plugs
Cons: not needed if coated
Autolite 4162's, I changed them out every 1000 miles.
Cons: short lifespan
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 1000 km
Part number: 4162
As long as it’s not auto lite plugs you should be good. I’ve seen those things hinder 3 separate rigs from running right. Once one cracked 100 miles after installing them, half way through a trip we had to sop at autozone and replace plugs
Pros: other plugs should be good
Cons: hinder rigs from running
Mileage: 100 km
Don't even think the Autolite or Bosch last as long as Denso/NGK spark plugs.
Cons: do not last long
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
autolites were fine 100 years ago
now stick with NGK or whatever OEM was. its not worth it to be fudging around and what little your gonna save may be burned up in less MPG using some other plug.
Cons: less MPG
I've had nothing but bad luck with Autolite brand.
Cons: bad luck
I have a poor running Audi in the shop now. While it needs more than plugs, it has autolites.
Cons: poor running
Vehicle:
Audi
