Default Problem with the plugs?

Hey my '05 SRT has learned a new trick today. I was at a stop light when my car shuttered and damn near stalled out. Is it time to switch out the plugs and wires or is this a fluke?

stalling is never really just a fluke in a car this new. sounds like a possibility. How many miles have you put on?

Good point - those v-powers are good stock heat range plugs. I ran them before I switched to densos. On the wires - get some msd's or go to sparkplugs.com and get their 10 mm shielded. The wires alone smoothed out my idle significantly.

Yup, new wires are just plain good insurance, the stock ones suck. I have MSDs and haven't had any problems in almost two years.

I was eventually planning on doing it anyways sooo... but to answer your question, Adam, it has 2009 miles on it.
