e3 plugs from advance auto

Has anyone tried the e3 plugs from advance auto? a long time ago there was a discussion about not using the bosch 4 because pieces of the platinum eventually falls off into the cylinders. Does these e3's do the same? http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductD...pe=960&PTSet=A

I have always stayed with the motorcraft because of this fact. My old cars I used the bosch 4 with good results and was disappointed to hear they don't hold up well with the escort.

Same old story just a gimmick. Stay with the tried and true Autolites, Champion or Delco. You will save money in the long run!

Can't confirm that one. I use autolite plugs (non-platinum) in my Escort. They are only a dollar per plug and so easy to change that I usually change them every two years. I get good mileage and good performance. I tried Bosch Platinums and got rid of them after about a year. Of course the plug you run is your choice.
