I'll add that unless you are driving Bob Hockert's of Mike Salter's Healey,
I would not recommend that you use platinum plugs, of any manufacturer.
There is not enough voltage with stock OR sports coils to make them work
efficiently.

I for one don't mind reading about the same topics over and over--sometimes,
new 
data or a new idea comes along that makes it worthwhile.

Do we all really know everything there is to know about our cars?
