Spark plug Bosch or OEM Honda

Replace the spark plug with a Bosch. See if it will start and run.

I have a shelf of new parts for a bunch of my VW’s. All the cap and rotor parts I can find are the same for either car. They’re brand new. The plugs are brand new as well. Gapped by the Bentley. The plugs were “black” from trying to fire but not.

I purchased from a local auto parts store for my 07 E550 and SO's 05 E55 - stealership quoted around $1k, parts for each with Bosch Iridium plugs was about $125. Installed new plugs at around 70k for the E550 and OE plugs (also Bosch) looked clean and the gaps were spot-on

I had those on my 2017 civic 1.5t sedan that I had some performance mods done to and they worked great

I am running LiquiMoly Molygen at the moment, use LiquiMoly Engine Flush and Direct Injection Cleaner when chaining oil, put in new Bosch plugs and coil packs about 9 months ago.

Also, some engines get particular about plugs. Bosch has a bad rep for the 3400 engine in my Grand Am, while NGK and AC Delco(I've got NGK Iridium IXs in there now) are fine.

Took original plugs out at 50K miles. Not awful but electrode partially rounded with increased gaps. Stock plugs are Bosch and apparently copper core, so I replaced with same. Recommended gap is 0.043'' Added anti-sieze to threads for easier removal next time.

Never use the Bosch ones for the E46s. Just not working right

Don't use Bosch on 90s Toyotas.

I think I just went back and got the Bosch. Couldn’t return either because I jacked up the nips trying to tweak them off ????
