Spark plugs

Ok! so we can get Spark Plugs that cost from 79 cents to $10 bucks each. Anyone have any experience or data that proves one type is better then another. I got a 22R, thinking about them fancy E3.46 plugs $6 bucks each?

 

I don't have any data but I use NGK and many people on this forum do also. If you want to spend $$$ on spark plugs just so you can say you have fancy plugs then go for it, but I'm positive you will see no improvement over a factory plug.

 

OK NGK IRIDIUM $7.85ea, PLATINUM'S $3.15ea or V-Power or traditional plugs $2.40ea ???

 

v power. but if you got money then platinums

 

Yes the v power I guess. Just a regular old spark plug. Do a search on spark plugs and you should get all the info you need.

 

I run NGK V-Power and bosch wires on my 80. They work great, havent found a better plug than the NGK for toyota motors.

I run Denso plugs from the dealer. I also have 4 new spares in my spares box, just in case.

 

I've always just used v power ngks they do the job and they're inexpensive.

 

I always use the ones that go "Bzzzk" and make a spark.

 

Cheap standard plugs.

On a old 22R you don't need anything fancy. It's not pushing enough spark to worry about getting Iridium and those Platnium plugs are a little more than a marketing ploy.

It's nothing special, the plugs aren't going to make any difference.

 

Same here. I use semi-premium plugs, though. I dont use iridium or platinum, but I don't like the cheapest of cheap plugs either.

 

Oem!!

 

I took some advice from you guys. Just installed NGK GP Platinum’s BPR5EGP Replacing the Champions. Frankly I didn’t expect any significant difference, after all their just spark plugs. Wrong! First off the Champions I removed were in excellent shape they only have about 2k on them they were installed by the shop that I had the heads rebuilt at. The idle smoothed out immediately and it feels like I have more power but then again when I was a kid I always thought I ran faster with a new pair of Keds. We’ll see what happens.

 

I had a buddy with a 87 4-runner that had a rough idle with champion spark plugs and was fixed by switching to NGK's. I dont know why but the yota motors dont take kindly to champion plugs.

 

Hey guys...noob question.

I have an 1987 4runner turbo.

What would be the best to run...platinum or irridiums?

I am unsure of what could or would be the best.

Thank you...

 

On a turbo, I would consider factory plugs which should be denso platinum.

 

The factory manual states that you need two prong plugs, not single. I always get OEM. Platinum does nothing for our trucks and could even hurt performance. Get the correct twin prong plugs in there and change them out every 30-50k (I let mine go 50k).

 

Any preference on plugs for a 04 Tundra. Should I just stick with OEM.

I heard NGK's were good at a reasonable cost.

Thanks loads.

 

NGK V-Power, have always had great luck with these in my Toyotas, Also run these in the extended tip version for my small block Chevys, I also run these in all of my Chainsaws, Great Spark Plugs !!!

 

Thanks Toyota's...

That's what others have recommended too.

Thanks.......
