Default Reveiw for Pulstar Plugs...

Ok well I got them in the mail installed them turned the car on and the car would barely start, the engine was misfiring like crazy, the engine ran like sh*t, I spent over $100 on the Pulstar plugs so now I have to walk to the local autoparts store to buy some other spark plugs probably will go withNGK V power$2 a piece.


P.S Dont ever even consider buying Pulstar Plugs they are garbage they may work on other cars but on the A4 1.8T they worked horribly, it was a disaster. Oh and now to return them I have to pay shipping (how rude).

sounds like the gap was WAY to big. Betting you took them out of the box and installed them didnt you?

Did you gap them down a little bit? If your car is chipped then... yeah. It needs a smaller gap, about 0.028"

Are those pulstar's multi-ground plugs?


Edit: Get the NGK BKR6E's if you want some good plugs.

then you should of gapped to .032 like they are suppose to be. But spending $100 on plugs is just nuts honestly.

Not sure I only see one ground http://www.pulstarplug.com/howtheywork.html

I like NGK the best had them in my Trans am before I sold it I had the V power ones BKR7E and the car ran awesome with them but it might have been the MSD performance plugs. ANyway the part store only had Champion single platinum in stock so I had to grab those I cant wait 2 days for them to order the NGK or Bosch, I could of went to another store but I cant drive my car because the pulstar plugs are still in it and the car stalls every few seconds with them so I had to walk to the nearest part store.
