Is $178 a good price for getting your plugs changed? That does not include the plugs themselves. I bought plugs the other day, thinking I could put them in myself, but I tried to take off the upper intake manifold and just could not get it off, so I said screw it, I'll let a repair shop do it.
Spark Plugs
Sorry if this is a repost, I can't find anything about it when I searched. I have the water injection that I'll be installing here within a half an hour. It suggests copper spark plugs over double platinum. I guess for the temperature to convert the water into steam?
Anyways Autozone only has platinum plugs and wouldn't sell me anything else because that's what ford recommened. I went to the dealership and they were trying to get me to buy some single platinum (wire plugs?) that were 4.80 a piece.
To get copper ones with a 1.3-1.4mm gap am I going to have to order them or buy some and regap them? How much is a spark plug gapper cost? ANY advice would be appreciated.
It will be installed today either way, but for the fuel economy the coppers are suggested. Thanks.
