In a holding pattern.

I'm concerned about the putting in these plugs (ones recommended on POA and by PepBoys)...they don't look like a similar fit...should the stock plug and the Bosch +4 be differnt lenghts (see photo) ??

If yor're familiar with the Bosch 4428 application in the Prowler...let me know.

You are being a little Paranoid, Nyle Wing suggested these years ago and they work. I had them in my 99 and 00, better throttle response,,,,,,,,, these are the only way to go...

The orignial plugs in the photo had 20,000 miles on them (the maintenance schedule says they're good for 100,000 miles). Maybe the electrode is supposed be that tapered and wide gap...but...to me the orignial plug looks worn out??

Any mechanics out there that can speak to condition of my original plugs condition?

Maybe it's the power of suggestion. But...after the installation of the Bosch+4 plugs..the car seems to sound different at idle (better) and it seems to "hit harder" at full throttle??

Sounds like the cheapest performance mod you can do. Pretty easy to do also.
