Spark Plugs

Kermit what the f? AutoZone refused to sell you coppers because they aren't recommended?? Whoever that dumbass was deserves a good slap upside the head about 40 miles an hour.

Anyway...yeah a gapper is no more than a few bucks. Supposedly the wire type is better, where you have wires of discrete thicknesses. The other type is a little metal disc that continually gets thicker, which I hear is less accurate.

I worked at the 'zone and i can tell you why.
I only sold plugs that came with the engine because i did not want the people coming back and saying I sold him the wrong stuff. If they wanted something different, I always ask you sure about 5 times. Like his dude came back pissed because the Bosch +2 had his vic running like crap. He wanted to show his ass and stuff. Then my coworker said, look i remember you. You know I would not sell Bosch plugs for a ford, i told your ass to get motor-craft. The dude look at pissed and walked out. :laugh: [/b][/quote]
That's fine, but all I'm saying is, if the store sells the product and I say, "I want that one, here is my money," then it hardly seems that some dufus cashier should be telling me they won't sell me them just because I happen to own X car. If Kermit had walked in with the part number for the plugs, they would have handed them over immediately, which is numb.

Seems to me that if the company is claiming it doesn't have to be done then they ought to be replacing a lot of prematurely killed transmissions for free... *ahem*.
