Default Good Replacement For Bonneville Spark Plugs

I have been told from many of my friends that it is good to change the spark plugs when you buy it used because you never know if the owner took care of the car.

However , i am not sure which ones are the best economical ones or problem free...

Thankx for the input!

Hmmm we still don't know what you drive.

It all depends on how much you want to spend and how often you plan on changing them.

For example.. the TR55 NGK'* suggested are a good low cost copper plug. You'll need to change them about once every year or two.

NGK Iridium X plugs are more costly..but you don't need to change them as often.

No problem on the car. We covered it for you.

All depends on how much you'd like to pay and how long you'd like them to last.

I just changed to the "cheap" copper TR55 NGK and I had a night and day difference in performance. IMO they are the best for the money, and if they last 2 years, thats good enough for me........

The larger red letters is kinda annoying, like you're shouting at us...

NGK TR-55 works beautifully in my 93. much
