sorry about that...Before I redid my spark plugs and wires I had a delay from the time I hit the gas to the time the car actually took off. I no longer have that delay and I am seeing the car preform like it is brand new... Sorry it took me so long to respond back I was out of town

To address anmagro's question, leave the champion plugs for your lawnmower.

NGK of Bosch Platnum Series. Either one will suit it.

Horsepower TV did a spot on them, comparing them to "the next best comeptitor." But never named the other plug. And the E3's gave 7 more horsepower and use .025 pounds of fuel per hour less. What's that in MPG, .0001? And without naming the competitor, gee, I wonder who paid for that spot???

I did our plugs a few weeks ago with the NGK's. Needed a set wuick, so hit the Audi stealership. $80 for 6 plugs!! And he tells me I'm lucky I don't have the 4 cylinder, as plugs are more expensive (but with only 4, it still came out to $80). Moral of the story - buy them online!

I just saw that episode again today and you can tell by looking at them that they were Bosch platinum 4's.
