I use Denso IK20TT and these spark plugs work every time, on both fuels.
Update: went Bosch for the plugs and ngk for the coils, the manufacturer plugs and coils were still in as if no one has touched them since the car was bought, I’m the third owner I believe. Each spark plug was toasted, easily double the recommended gap, and once I put the first two coils in (pulled code P0300, P0301,P0302) the problem entirely went away (coughing and sputtering exhaust, slow to accelerate, car shaking between 20-40 mph, rough starts) so I knew it was a go ahead for the rest of the coils. Feels like a whole new car all around, I can tell the engine is thanking me by what she’s putting out now ????
The best plug I found for a shovel is a Bosch Platinum WR8DP.
I always had issues when I used any plugs other than Bosch Iridium or Platinum. You can even try Bosch copper plugs if you find the right heat and size. They're usually cheaper and better, but don't last very long... like 10k miles.
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 denso 5310 in mine, apparently they are supposed to give you a slight increase in power if you use premium fuel.
Idk if I gained any power, but the car runs well.
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.
I got misfires with FD5POR RS2 plugs. Almost 10000kms on Bosch f2cs this year. Been working perfect for me
Just install my today, is it just me being paranoid or else? the engine noise sounds louder and it's very noticeable. Has anyone felt the same way? by changing out for these spark plugs, does it make any advantage performance wise? btw i am pretty sure the installation was good and not misfire or anything likes that. just more engine noise and not a good noise.
I have solved so many drivability problems taking Bosch plugs out of misfiring engines.
