Don't screw around, stay with the factory specified Bosch or NGK plugs. In changing the plugs you may find some oil accumulated in the wells, don't panic, sop it up, and change the valve cover gasket.

Yup, stick with oem recommendation. They'll work noticeably better, better power and fuel economy. All the other hocus pocus junk is just that........junk, and expensive junk at that.
