I have a very different engine the 2.5 an I usually don't try the fancy spark plugs much but I tried the Bosch Fine Wire Iridium Spark Plugs over a year ago I just pulled two to check things out.

I was surprised as they were the cleanest plugs I have ever pulled they looked almost new the Iridium points were super clean and shiny like the day I put them in the burn was excellent. I did also install an excel hot coil at the same time and widened my gap .05 from stock.

I would say the best plug I ever used

 

owners manual? lol that is grand. that probably got tossed somewhere around 2000.

5w-30 itll be. winter is upon us up here in PA.

thanks for everyones suggestions. think ill stick with the stock temp plugs. unfortunately this is all coming from advanced auto. she has a gift card, and will be doing all the purchasing.

should i start a new thread on the heater repair? id like to know how to check the blend door and resistors.

 

If buying from Advance you can go online at www.retailmenot.com and or just Google search for "Advance Auto Parts Coupons" and you should see their current discount codes listed. Buy online and pick the parts up at the store. I have saved a ton of money the last few years with the AAP discount codes. I would say do not buy their cheaper line of ignition parts. You may have to call the store and ask but they probably do have better quality parts available. Ignition parts and sending units are two things where it really pays off to get the best parts you can afford. The online discount codes do not apply to oil but you can use the codes on filters.
