Spark plug OEM FORD or BRISK

Brisks are great plugs. Do be warned however, their groundstraps are softer than others and open gap much sooner vs other plugs. So you'll be checking them much more often and changing them sooner than the usual 10-15k tuned interval.

I went to Brisk ER12S a few weeks after going 1+ tune which are one heat range colder, same fitment as MK7.

Had to replace the plugs and ignition coils last summer and that fixed it.

My 2000 Ford Ranger with a 4-cylinder and manual is just about the simplest vehicle that could exist. SOHC engine, so not much that can go wrong in it. It's very satisfying to work on because you don't experience the shitty feeling of knowing you spent way longer on something than it should have taken.

Brisk plugs off Parker performances page. The brisks hold there gap and seem to really last

I'm running brisk One step colder plugs at 0.024 Gap with my eqt stg 2 tune. they are amazing

Brisk LGS plugs basically remove that L shape off the spark at the end. I would expect it act more like plugs do when we index them to the fuel flow. such that you get a better flow in the combustion chamber more consistently.

I have used Rs7 plugs (meh), the APR recommended NGK plugs (rough idle, gapped correctly), and the Brisk ER12S. I'm on my second set of the Brisk, and plan to keep using them.

would suggest plugs, RS7 or Brisk 12's (cheaper) but coil packs are not needed.

I own one of these, and I couldn't have a lower opinion of Fords engineering (the 2v spits out spark plugs? lets "fix" it on the 3v and make it so they will never come out).
