[QUOTE="Wade_GT, post: 14138465, member: 132953"] My car has 130,000 miles and I've been experiencing some low RPM "bucking" so I decided to look into new coils and plugs. Rather than replace the 8 coils which would be quite expensive, I found NGK Coil Boots (the rubber piece and inner spring) for $4.08 each on RockAuto.com. I've been running Autolite Copper plugs (764) up to this point without any issue, but material broke off the plug right above the thread as I was removing them. Previous torque was set to 18 lbs / ft so it's not like I over-torqued them, and they only had 24,500 miles on them. Anyways, I used a magnetic wand to grab all of the shrapnel I could before installing new NGK V Power plugs. Just looking at the construction of the NGK vs. Autolite, you can quickly tell the difference in quality that makes the NGK's worth the extra $0.50 per plug ($2.50 each from Pep Boys). Fortunately, the low RPM bucking was fixed, and I'll be an NGK user for life now. Total spend was $52 excluding tax and shipping (less than the cost of one new OEM Coil on Plug):-D Old Coil Boot / Spring Removed [ATTACH]14320.vB[/ATTACH] Damaged Autolite 764 [ATTACH]14321.vB[/ATTACH] New NGK Coils and Plugs [ATTACH]14322.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]14323.vB[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
