36061, Are these spark plugs OK????
Posted by euro_clipse, Oct-30-02 05:50 PM
OK, since I live in Germany, and I can't think of any car over here with the 420A, I went to the local shop and asked for the NGK BKR5E-11, and they came up with some BERU (German brand) BKR5ES-11. Does anybody know if these plugs will work, to the same effect as the NGK's?? They are also silver tipped, is this a good thing?
Also, what should the gap be, and do you think this is a good upgrade from the Platinum +4's?? Thanks for your help!

Sweet, just picked them up, and they're NGK's, not Beru's. I think they're just silver tipped instead of copper, right???
