If you are pretty much bone stock and your LSJ has the factory installed NGKPFR6T
Platinum plugs, you are set for life.They will out last your bottom end, lol. They are factory
gapped and do not need to be serviced unless they break for some reason. If you try to re-gap them you will most likely break the strap. They cost about $50.00 each to replace so if you ever do use another plug keep them, you can re-use them with no worries. If you do find that you are doing some mods and want something else for performance, go with a copper cored plug. With out regard to heat range, copper being a softer metal does not hold heat like platinum or even iridium type plugs and offer better performance, as they will run cooler, you need heat in the spark produced not but no heat retained in the plug making the spark. I use the NGK BKR7E, I use a lot of nitrous and change my plugs often, mostly due to electrode erosion.

platinum plugs just illustrating their longevity. An old set platinum plugs lying around
might be all a person has in squeeze.
