The Champion L87Y plugs I use in my daily driver TR4 seem just about
perfect for the engine (same as your TR3 engine, basically). What heat
range were you using? May have been too hot, or too cold, or maybe you
just had a defective one. I've always used Champions in all my cars, and
have never had a complaint. Years ago I experimented with lots of other
brands, but with the exception of some no-namers from J.C. Whitless and
the like, I never saw a performance difference. I settled on Champion
because they work and they're available everywhere.
