    Default Spark Plugs

    My car has been running puke-rich so my spark plugs are all fouled. I'm replacing the fuel pressure regulator to cure that problem, but I'm wondering what plugs would be best. Mainly, do those Bosch Platinum +2 and +4 plugs have any real advantage? Price isn't a huge issue because Santa gave me an Autozone gift card, but I want to get the best for my money obviously.

    Thanks for the help!

    from my knowledge, it's just more a consistent spark and a little longer lasting.

    I ran both... +4s and TR55's.

    Ran +4s first...swapped them for TR55's after a forum said Bosch were junk. Got a less than smooth idle and some noticable, if by only a margin, flat spots at 4000 rpms + with the TRs. So I switched and never looked back on my 3rd set of +4s with 276K on the clock.

    Never tried any other NGK product though...but in my opinion NGK are good products, just not in my car.

    It's a naturally aspirated 3.0 liter V6. NGKs seem like the way to go. Thanks guys!
