RE: Tune Up Opinions

I'll have to get a new set of regular Platinums and test the difference.
How did everybody find out the tech info on the +4's not being right for
16V's?  I'll keep the List posted of the results.

The experience I had with them was this. I put them in my car, and 5 
weeks later my car ran like a dog, missing badly on one cylinder. The 
techs at New Dimensions said the plugs were not compatible with my 
engine, and were causing the problem.  I put in the triple electrode 
coppers (OE) and have been running those for over a year with no 
problems. Plenty of power too.  

I've heard of people that really like them, but I had a negative 
experience.  Even right when I put them in I noticed no difference. But 
the plugs I were replacing were also fairly new. 

Again, this is just my personal experience and just means that they 
didn't work for me in my car at that time for whatever reason. And I'll 
be hard pressed to pay $5 bucks a pop to try them again.
