Plug change went easy. These were the originals with only 41K miles.

The Champions were all gapped correctly. It fired right up and runs smooth!

You got pretty luck they all came out ok! That third one from the left looked like it could've caused some problem with seizing down the road.

Thanks for asking. I only was able to take a 4 mile ride the other day. It is back in the garage until all the roads are cleared of anti-skid.

Good Old Northwestern PA..

Yes, that one was actually the driver's side rear. It gave the most resistance.

If that plug change went easy, go buy a lottery ticket!
I'm on my second set of Champions-runs like as bear.

I tried ther champions, gapped correctly, no real problems but when it came time to change them I went with the SP514's with anti-seize. I take them out every 10k miles to check them and put some new anti-seize.

I have a new set waiting to be put in, probably tomorrow. Racing takes a toll on them and it's a cheap preventive maintenance.

The stock plugs work just fine if you follow the correct procedure and use a torque wrench to install them.
