Help with sparkplugs!!

What do you guy's think of iriduim spark plugs. I replaced my platnium with regular ngk's. I haven't heard much of the iridium negative or possitive. I've heard of the bad thing's of platnium.

Re: Help with sparkplugs!!

they are not any better than the standard plugs, least not hp wise

and beyond that it's simple math...

why pay 4-5X the $$ for a plug that only lasts 2X as long.

at $2 a plug, the standard NGK plugs can be changed several times over for the same money as buying one set of plats or irridium.

and i am sure in most applications the standard plugs will last 50K miles.
