So the new set of plugs arrived, so switched out them along with new wires, since two broke during work (Magneti Marelli) and since I already tested and bought a new coil pack basically the whole ignition system's now revamped.
So far after more than two hours of driving, no problems, but Im really careful since I dont wan to find out Im wrong, but it feels ok.
The old plugs where NGK, and after pulling them, their resistance measured on average about 4 kohms.
I kept the previous set, which where Beru's and they measured ~1.4 kohms.
The new set is Bosch, and Im going to stay away from NGKs since I drive a little bit sporty, lasted less than two years, and (I think) 20'000 km.
I put Autolite Iridium plugs in my '06 N52 20k miles ago because of a crazy sale/rebate. It runs as smooth as a new one.
You're on the right track- replace those worn out plugs. Pre-detonation started on my '18 at 30k. Increasing octane rating to 93 worked up to 58k miles. $50 for a new set of [Autolite Iridium XP5363](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078KWTCF2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) resolved this problem.
Bosh Double Iridium is the best value. AC Delco as well as the NGK only have an iridium electrode. The Bosh plugs have iridium laser welded to the ground electrode as well. The advantage is that it stays cleaner when it gets up to temperature and will have virtually no wear. Don't get Autolite. Their plugs are almost always out of spec. Out of the box you can ohm them out and 1 of the 4 is guaranteed to be out of spec.
That is what I am running in this 1996 Corolla and my gas Mileage is better than ever! Made a huge difference in power .
i might switch out the plugs again because my buddy got me some freebie bosch plat 4 and i wanna put the bosch single silvers in.
Yeah, get rid of those: autolite is junk.
Don't use Bosch on 90s Toyotas.
My dad just returned a set of autolites. I installed them and had immediate misfire.
Once we got a good local supplier for Motorcraft plugs a few years ago we almost never install Autolite.
