Guys,

I was regapping my spark plugs and I broke the tip on one of them. The very last one I was doing with the coin style gap tool I rushed it and broke the tip. Sooooooo....

I called around and asked for AC Delco plugs and no one has one in stock for a few days lead time.

I need to get to and from work unfortunately so I was wondering if I can use off brands for awhile?

I'm assuming using 3 AC Delcos and one Autolite is bad so I'm going to pick up 4 Autolite iridium at the store. Is this acceptable to run for a few months? Or should I use it for a few days and order AC Delco's?

 

Anybody?

 

Get some off brands until you can get new Delcos but STAY OUT of boost. Misfire city under load.

 

Somewhere should have NGKs in stock, ACDelcos are NGKs so its okay

 

I tried they don't, Everyone only has Autolites with a .043 **** Gap!

 

so decrease the gap and don't break them
people say autolite are shitty but i ran them for 2 years cramming timing on the s/c setup.

 

Well Pepboys has the E3 spark plugs in stock, should I do that over autolites?

 

lol get whatever u want autolites are pretty cheap and i never had one issue with them with 20k on them copper plugs just my personal experience with them.

 

Yeah, the E3's are only a dollar more so I figured, if they work better, might as well pay the buck. But I'm running out of light so I'm just going to throw these in and hope for the best.

According to Autozone they want me to run these autolites at .043 gap. Is it recommended to still drop the gap?

 

i would drop to .032 or so

 

auto lites will work fine....the stock ones are no better....chevys plugs are nooo way 100,000 mile plugs....I only have 9000 miles on my car but plan on upgrading the plugs pronto

 

Ive had friends use e3's in Srt-4's they were no bueno. Not saying they won't work, but they misfired like crazy.

 

stay away from E3...***** with the coils
