Spark Plugs

Post by indigolemon » Mon Apr 23, 2012 10:03 am

Small update, finally got round to swapping the spark plugs for the new Denso TT ones I got at a bargain price. All seems good so far 8-)

For reference, these are what I fitted:
Image
Denso wrote:A true world first, DENSO's patented Twin Tip (TT) Spark Plugs feature a nickel centre and a 'twin' protruding ground electrode with a slimmer 1.5mm diameter. This highly ignitable, durable technology achieves ignition efficiency closer to DENSO's premium Iridium ranges, without expensive precious metals. Aimed at drivers seeking fuel savings and reduced emissions along with responsive, reliable ignition performance, DENSO's TT Spark Plugs are suitable for LPG as well as petrol engines. The range is also highly consolidated: only seven part references offer enough applications to cover 80% of the top selling European cars.
Will keep you all posted on how it goes.

New one from the bay, £38 quid posted with a 2 year warranty. Was a fairly easy swap, bar the lower fan bolts - hello mr hacksaw!

Heater in the car started blowing cold on the way to work. Arrived at work and discovered the bottom rad hose had popped off :o

OEM clip had bought it. Swapped the top clip to the bottom, and going to get another clip for the top at lunch. Fun times :evil:
