These were actually alright spark plugs. The ceramic is a lot tougher than normal ceramic, and the electrode is larger. They were marketed as 'truck plugs', but they're really good in old tractors and farm equipment. They last forever.
Only issue I’ve had is having 2 spark plugs blow out. The first time required a replacement head and the second was fixed with a helicoil. Most reliable vehicle I have owned.
For spark, I wasn't sure I had the right plugs so I went with the OEM Champion plugs that were recommended in the Bentley. I checked for spark, no issues there.
I have an aero 50. I don’t recall what’s recommended on it, but when I was living in the Pacific Northwest, I found that while using premium, it ran significantly better. Smoother idle, better acceleration.
I remember the first time I did anything besides oil, it was spark plugs and power steering fluid on my old accord. Starting it up after had me nervous, second guessing everything I did.
Replace those plugs with nothing other than the Champion 7989 plugs. They are about $14 each and they are a 1 piece design.
I once had to use 99 cent Champion plugs in my car for a few months when I was flat broke. They worked fine but didn't last long.
Champion is shit for cars. Leave it for mowers and weed eaters.
I would return them and get Motorcraft anyway. Champion is garbage.
Champion plugs are barely adequate for a lawnmower...
