I would and will NEVER use bosch plugs again.

I had a go cart need a plug, went to autozone picked up a reg. bosch, installed, did not over tighten or anything, ran it, ran like crap, missing and backfiring and everything, but after a couple minutes it seemed it started this, removed the plug, well went to, and the porcelin was busted all off of it like it blew off.

They are junk and I hate them.

as far as wires go autozone sold me duralast and they have been great so far.

That's funny, I got a set of those too and they were in the garbage 2 days later. They were leaking spark all over the place. Probably the worse set of wires I ever dealt with, and they were brand new. They had that silicone slime **** in the boots. Don't know if I just got a bad batch or what.

My mechanic yanked them out and put a better quality set in, they are great, just don't know what make they are... :shitsweak:

I have autolite plugs in mine right now, it's running fine so far. I prefer Delco parts when the budget allows.

Also run NGK in my boat and ATV motors no problem. Standard also makes some good ignition parts.

well like i said they have been great so far. i havent driven it yet or ran it more then just starting it and reving the **** out of it to show it off other then that idk i havent really done any extended amount of running since i cant drive her on the road yet :shitsweak:

also i didnt like them in the first place because they wernt the same some were shorter and some were longer, also they are bent 90 degrees at each end so i had some issues with my exhaust manifold, needles to say the wireing looks like **** now and if my dad had let me use his truck to take them back i would have had a new set of something better. but no i already went to autozone threetimes that day he wasnt gonna put up with another haha. :shitsweak: now that i think about it DONT BUY DURALAST IGNITION PRODUCTS. **** is seriously weak

Wait for a real dark night, start it up, shut off the lights you can, and watch for blue sparks under the hood. You don't have to rev it up, just idle is good enough. Check around your plugs and your leads at the cap. Sometimes they're even bad enough you hear them tick as spark is escaping.

Trying to go with the ac delco iridium but i need to get them from oreillys because my mother is a manager of a salvage/repair shop and the owner lets me use his dealers number thing but i cant seem to find the iridium there. Can i still get the rebate if i use his number. (Probably not)
Probably go with msd wires
