Misfiring...Spark plugs...any suggestions?
What are the best spark plugs out there for 2005 RL?

I have 195xxx miles on it and need to replace my spark plugs before selling it off.

Thanks in advance.

so is it miss firing or is this a "I just did the plugs" sales pitch?

I'm an NGK fan, there is some spark plug talk here:

The Densos I put in at 95k are still good at 112k, but didn't make the gas mileage any better, but no worse either.

Thanks. I decided to go with the NGK iridiums. Overall, people had better experiences with it.

Great video....the RL's Coil Packs are held on with Acorn Nuts, so you don't need an allen wrench.
