So I finally replaced my spark plugs. Nothing fancy just regular NKG's; except when I took the old ones out the electrode came to a point.
These are nothing like the iridium points, they were stock Audi spark plugs!
I would of taken a picture, but I threw them away before realizing this was a strange occurrence. [:@]
Oh, and another thing, I checked the gap on the old ones just to see how bad they were... Yeah still at 32, I just don't get it.

The point looked like this: /\

Any ideas? Only one I could come up with is that the plugs were never changed.
Could this have been 7 years of wear on spark plugs?!?

Let's hear some theories!

 

um i doubt it... as you said they are stock plugs so my bet would be you (or someone else, idk if you bought it new or used) just took it too a dealer and put in stock audi plugs....

 

I wasn't aware that stock plugs came to a point like that.
Do you know this for a fact?

 

no... im just sayin that if you think they are stock plugs then maybe

 

that doesnt look like a point to me.

 

not at they end of it even?? it looks like it starts fat and narrows in

 

They are good for maybe 30k miles. Anything beyond that is nuts. SOmeone had to of changed them before. WHy the point, no idea unless someone thought they were giving it more spark by doing that [:@]

 

That's kinda what it looked like. Except not iridium, maybe I should of said filament instead. : /
Wish I took a picture, imagine a black upside down ice cream cone!

STOCK PFR



I think you mean the electrod on the bottom. In that case they are pointed vs flat

 

meant stock as in OEM.. sorry, like i said before that i doubted they were original plugs
