Spark Plugs Non OEM

Johnnyr135 · 09-04-2008, 06:35 PM

Has anyone found another spark plug to use besides the Bosck ZGR6STE2 I have not been able to cross reference one. I fouled out another set of plugs I have to bring the car in tomorrow for another set. I am looking for a little warmer plug to combat this problem but I have had no luck I was wondering if anyone else has. Thanks

octane booster again?

Yeah, man, I would be real careful with warmer plugs possibly causing detonation under full boost. Since you have the Dinan tune, I would call them or write them and ask about the fouling you are experiencing and ask for their recommendation. I can only assume this might be due to the richer fuel mixture with the Dinan tune. I wouldn't expect a stock car to be fouling plugs like you are experiencing. I have used the Bosch Platinum +4 in the past with good results in two different Bimmers. You can check on their web site for the recommended plug for your car. But I would first talk to Dinan about this issue and see what they have to say.
