[DeTomaso] Hotter Champion Plug

[Mad Dog Antenucci]

Thanks Mark,
  That is bad or worse then Champion....fwiw this is the first negative I have got on Autolites.
  Maybe 4-5 similar bad reports on Champion, most citing last 2-3 years experience. A couple others said they NEVER had a problem with Champion!
   
  Nothing negative on NGK....YET

        I had to purchase three sets of Autolites plugs to get 8 that were closest in ohm readings. With 24 plugs I found resistance between 5 and 12 ohms. I figured with that much variance the engine would never run smooth. One set of 8 out of 24, I don't think I got a good deal. I think NGK has better quality control. Or you may chose to run a race specific plug.

>That's exactly the problem I am having.....the last two times we changed plugs 1 or 2 Champion plugs were bad right  out of the box....one to 2 more were fouling pretty quickly driving around town after ORR   Hoping Mike Trusty's IR-EFI system when ready will eliminate much of the problem.
