this is the first time I bought some denso regular plugs (KJ16CR-L11. stock#3132).

Denso claims that the ground electrode has a "U-Groove" and from the pictures on the box and on the website it seems there is a very slight but yet visible groove. But these plugs that I got have no sign of any such a groove. Did I get an imitation ?

 

That is not a Denso U-Groove. Does it say U-Groove on the box?

 

yes it has U-Groove in capital letters all over the box! On the big main box that contains the set of 4 and on each one of the individual ones too.
But whether or not its printed on the box, the spark plugs have the part# KJ16CR-L11 printed on them and that part# is a U-groove plug, and so I'd expect them to be.

I got these from Autozone. If what you are saying is true I cant believe they'd pull off such a thing!!

 

called up Denso. They said that the kj16cr-l11 is indeed a non-u-groove plug and yet they ship it in a u-groove pack
yeah thanks for wasting my time!

Yeah, I've installed lots of u-groove plugs and that ain't one of them. They are good plugs though.

 

Dude that sux.
