Just picked up NGK Laser Platnium spark plugs, $12.99 a piece.. Before i open them and put them in, im curious as to how they work better than juet regular plugs, and is it worth it for the extra 40$?

i just dont get how they work better? thanks

 

Platinum is a hard and durable material. Platinum has a higher resistance than copper, so it actually won't help performance, but it will extend the life of the plug. Most platinum plugs are rated at 100K mile intervals; that's why some newer cars have that in their maintenance manuals.

 

werd, thank you.

 

NGK V-Power spark plugs work fine and they are $2-2.50 a piece.

So you bought the expensive one's before you knew why you were spending the extra $?
