RE: What are Others Running for Sparkplugs?
the stock plugs are NGK copper
and the recomended change interval for the stock plugs are 30,000, but ive seen one thet were pulled at 24,000 that needed to be changed.

RE: What are Others Running for Sparkplugs?
what about gap? how do you change the gap, and why do some people say to gap at .044 while factory gap is .032. I dont really want to spend 40 bucks on some spark plugs.

RE: What are Others Running for Sparkplugs?
You have to buy a $3 tool to change the gap to .044 if you want it there.
I currently cannot recommend changing the gap from stock as I don't have enough mileage and info to base and opinion on.
But, those are the plugs I recommend, but coppers would work fine. I think they are about $4-5 per plug.

RE: What are Others Running for Sparkplugs?
NGK copper is what is ther stock(a cheep plug)
the NGK Iridium's are a great plug and worth the little extra $.
the reason for the .044 gap is because the NGK Iridium's can handle it and it will give you a beter combustion chamber burn.
i wouldn't recomend NGK Iridium's to anyone that is bosted with a TC or a SC, belive it or not the coppers with work better in that setup
