Spark Plugs

I read on some forum to only use Denso spark plugs. I have been using Bosch and quite frankly they dont last no time. I picked up a pack of autolite from walmart and they have lasted twice as long.

I was just wondering if in fact the denso plugs do better than other brands?

DENSOS OR NGK'S THATS WHAT THE MANUFACTURER CALL FOR.. my ngk's and densos (original plugs one side denso and one side ngk) lasted 80k miles.. i changed them only bc i wasnt sure if they were the originals.. granted, dont go over 50k if you can help it with regular ngk's or densos.. both are some of the best plugs you can buy

NGK's are great! I have also run both splitfires and autolites w/o any problems (~40K miles).

edit: I only went with these brands over NGK because there were mail-in rebates refunding full purchase price at the time.

Don't see how you can beat NGK plugs.

NGK's for sure. This might be one of the few times that something dealer recommended is actually the best thing for the job!
