Re: Spark Plug
I drive my BB C20 in the city only so the plugs get carboned up quickly. I buy Champion platinum when they have a rebate (almost all the time) and i get the plugs for free. I have 32 new Champion plugs in the shed now because I "buy" them whenever they are free. I change the plugs once a year due to the carbon problem.
For plug wires, I use only Belden wires. NAPA has Belden wires under their name. All other brands I have tried have had tiny cracks in the boots that were not visible unless you bent the boots and looked closely - the cracks were found only with the help of an engine analyzer in skilled hands. I am going on 8 years in the desert heat with my current NAPA - Belden wires with no problems.
They cost more but they are worth it.
I don't believe in the whiz-bang super-duper latest technology plugs and plug wire hype. We still have gas guzzling beasts that will not benefit much from fancy fake technology. As long as the truck starts and runs well I am satisfied with my free stuff.
