Spark Plug Boots

undefinedundefined

99' 3.2 TL 97k miles,



Is there a way to check and see if the spark plug boots are in good shape? I tried to measure resistance across them and couldn't get a reading. Unlike conventional boots these have the socket end and then a 3 prong connector on the other end.

Also, what are the best factory replacement plugs for my car?

i put in NGK iridium plugs and i like them. You could also go with denso iridium, but those are typically double the price.

I was told NGK Double plats are like original equipment. And I was also Iridiums have to be changed more often.

Ngk Iridiums IX ZFRFIX-11 / 2477 known to be pretty g00d.

(oem is NGK R, Double Platinum PZFR5F11).

Iridiums! got um for $40 shipped on ebay for all six. feels like a whole new car. Smoother and a much smaller amount of jerk from 2nd to 3rd... still considering if that is the tranny...hummmm... don't know but the sparks help plenty.
