spark plug idea's well it's about time to change my spark plugs again and i didn't know if you guys had any idea's for new ones that might burn better then what i have now. i'm usually use Bosch plat +4s now. any suggestions on new ones or should i just stick with the bosch's.

plain Jane Autolite 24's work like a champ. thats whats in it at the moment. i've been switching between them and the bosch's for a few years now. both seem to work great. so i guess i'll just stick with em then :)

If you don't want to change them and are willing to pay $6-$7 per plug, try the NGK irridiums in a 6 heat range.

Those 2 step colder iridium plugs are working great in my car!

tried but i can't remember the heat range. car ran like it was missing like only 6 cyls were firing. i might try them again when i get my msd ignition installed this winter.

Leave the gap they come with alone so you don't chance ruining the tip.

i did leave the gap alone. in fact i was told not to screw with it when i got them so i know that wasn't the cause. hell for all i know i just got a bad spark plug. maybe i'll try them again.

Bosch plugs are more of an import plug, that is the only thing that I have ever owned that ran good with them. Autolite 25 is the factory plug in your car the 24 is a colder plug that stock. If you go iridium you are going overkill in my opinion. The 25's should do the trick. I also like the NGK's (non iridium tip) I had them in my Lightning.

Bosch plat +4s ???
I've run them before and thought they sucked. IMHO, I would use Autolite coppers.
A good read... http://www.crownvic.net/tech/sparkplugs101.htm

Iriduims wont show any benefit in an n/a car..
coppers ftw.

^^^^True, but like I said you don't have to change them as often (unless you foul them :( ).
