Let me know what you find out,, I have tried 3 different types and noticed a difference in all of them.. some better than the others... some seem to give the truck a sputter when accelerating...

My trucks always had platinum plugs with no problems. Plus you can get 100,000 miles out them to. Dealerships tell you what they put in the trucks and not what all kinds it can take.

Iridium is really expensive, but they last a really long time.
