Everyone swears by 3923's. What's the difference between 5224 and 3923?

Man get a set of plain Bosch R6 191 plugs. Autolite just is just not in my book as a good plug, those pix you saw in my pb where Autolite plugs. I know lots run them just fine, it's nice to try other parts not all trucks react the same way.

Shorter reach and cooler heat range.

Try running some 3923 plugs, as stated above. The factory ones I had in my ram added a ton to my pinging problems before I fixed my plenum and pulled the heads. The 3923's help eliminate pinging a TON (at least they did for me). Some people claim that it gains several horsepower, but I don't know about that. Maybe adds about as much horsepower as flame decals.

So youz guyz just quit it.


When I did my oil change last month I killed a filter taking it off as well, stuff happens.
