hi, im not sure if there is a another post like this but, i was wondering what is the best spark plugs for a 2009 focus LV LX... so far ive seen NGk IRIDIUM, PLATINUM and stock spark plugs. What would be the best for performance?
Thanks for the help.

Effectively little to choose between them for performance on that engine - the main difference between the plugs mentioned is life expectancy.

Cheers

I bought a set of NGK iridiums from op oils for $52 shipped when my plugs where due about year ago. I've also tried autolite 103s, but cant remember if i noticed a difference. I traded the car in a week after installing.

we use the NGK range.
The way we see it is if your using a plug with a shorter life expectancy to save some money, in the long run it doesn't save you money if paying a workshop to replace them as most workshops have a minimum half hour labour charge for any work.

any particular spark plug, a link from ebay or a shop like supercheapauto would be nice
thank you

The recommended NGK plug is ITR6F13, which is the iridium plug
Cheaper to import from UK via eBay

yea i got some earlier today, they made a difference from the old ones (louder exhaust and kind of faster)
