foul on over rich and leaky valve seal Britiron. My present mechanic, Peter
Petrov at Marina Motors in Venice, says that plugs is plugs and it's better
to replace a set of "on sale at Pep Boys" Champions every six to eight
months rather than waste money on a performance increase that can only be
measured with a computer on a new Ferrari.

I could not agree more!!!!! I don't really see the benefit of Platinum plugs
that cost 3-4X more but appear to last as long as Champions. I remember how
disappointed I was when my C started running like crap 6 months after a plug
change using Bosch platinums - changed the plugs (Champions) and the car ran
great again!!!!! I'll get NGKs when they are on sale - but no more expensive
plugs!!!!!!

Nah! Forget dinner, I'm gonna get me that new wowie zowie better than sliced
bread magnet for my gas line with the $$$ I save - I hear it increases MPG,
protects my engine and dispenses fortune cookies!!!!!!!!!!!!
