vs
Spark plug Autolite or BRISK
It was time to change the plugs so I went for one range colder (from Autolite 3923 to 3922). Before I installed these plugs, the power would drop off dramatically above 5500 in 3rd, 4th, and 5th. Now it is a much more progressive decline. The car actually maintains that pushed back in the seat feeling in the upper revs now.
Pros: progressive power decline
Cons: power drop off dramatically
Part number: 3922
The cheapo Autolite 3923 works very, very well. Works well with chipped and K04 cars also.
Pros: works very well, good for modified cars
Part number: 3923
i run autolite 63 (gap to 24 thousandths) on my stage 4 for 500 miles with nitrous, they look perfect. 99 cents each. to each his own.
Pros: look perfect, work great
Mileage: 800 km
Part number: 63
It has been satisfactorily argued that the inexpensive Autolites work as well as the expensive Iridiums, with the understanding that the Autolites must be changed more often.
Pros: work as well
Cons: changed more often
i just changed mine out.. i put in the autolite 3923's ($4 for the set) . they seem to work fine. one thing to watch out for though - they were all gapped differently out of the package. be sure to measure the gap before putting them in, just in case. (the gap should be .028)
Pros: seem to work fine
Cons: gapped differently
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Part number: 3923
I have autolites, they work well, but the car became jerky at part throttle when gapped at .024, runs better when opened wider for some reason.
Pros: work well
Cons: car became jerky
After changing the plugs from OEM's to Autolite 3923's, the coil packs started popping up. I've read that the Autolites are smaller than the OEM's, so they don't hold on as tight...and then somebody else said this is bogus and they're both the same. Whatever the reason, the coil packs on my car do not like the Autolites.
Cons: coil packs started popping
Just installed my autolites 3922 (one range colder than stock 3923) they were gapped to 0.025" with this gap I'm having some problems on hot startups, colds ones are ok. I'll regap them tomorrow and see if it gets better, maybe I'm having some loss in performace as well due the small gap....
Pros: cold startups ok
Cons: problems on hot startups, potential performance loss
Part number: 3922
don't feel like changing them every oil change like I did with the autolites that constantly misfired...
Cons: constantly misfired, frequent changes
i'm running autolites right now and i'm not too impressed with them
Cons: not too impressed
