regular NGKs are fine, iridiums just basically last longer, but its so easy to change that they are kinda pointless, atleast to me.

Iridiums if you have a v6 because they are a PITA to change, regulars if you have a 4 cylinder.

ngk = oem honda

yo 97......... go to SEARS... get a racket. an extension and a spark plug socket........to avoid mis-repositioning plug wires. remove wires 1 at a time and replace plug then reconnect plug wire or get a piece of tape and mark each plug wire before u take it out then u can remove them all at once ,,it is a very easy job . put a little bit of anti-seize on spark plug threads ......if u need further assistance holler

Make sure your spark plug socket is 5/8. When you put in the spark plug DO NOT drop it in the hole. Put it in with the socket.
