Well we all have seen the discussions on spark plugs the last few days and many of us gave an opinion. I work in an auto shop and my employer has been a mechanic for 31 years and a shop owner for 24. I told him about the plug discussions on this forum and did I get an earfull. He has spent hours on a car trying to make it run, checked compression , checked fuel pressure, checked timing and finally in desperation installed new plugs and a perfect running engine resulted. The new plugs were Autolite the plugs in the car were Champions...3 months old. He has had cars that won't start that have had new Champions and the car starts immediately when he changes plugs. We carry Autolite,AC Delco, and the Ford plugs..Motorcraft..I haven't seen a Champion plug in the shop since I have worked there...he went on for half an hour about plugs. He said that when Champion came out with their V-grove plugs , a very expensive plug, he had nothing but trouble and quit selling them to customers..and I thought Champions were an OK plug!!!!I am going to put a set of Autolite 3116 in one of my H's and see what happens. I know one thing..don't mention Champion plugs in our shop!!! I wonder if any Champion Plug Executives ever read our forums?????Cheers...Mike in Exeter Ontario
