Re: quick tune up question for a 92

Stay with AC delco plugs and 7mm wires.. Bosch +4 is crap and stay away from them. Bacially all other plug out there are the same and make no difference untill you get into the iridium, copper plugs which are colder running meant for boosted apps. Take one out and bring it to a parts store and get the same everything. Best advice i can give you.

Re: quick tune up question for a 92

ayep, stay with factory spec/brand plugs. ? for ya though, how do the plug-ends look? They tell a lot about engine-state. And, ya can usually play with heat-ranges within the spec. plug for your plant, but that only for certain prob.'s

Re: quick tune up question for a 92

Everybody has always told me to use AC Delco, nothing else. I've had the NGK's in there for almost a year and it runs great.

What ever you do don't over tighten them, it is TOO easy to strip the threads from the head, get them snug and add 1/16 turn.
