Yeah next thing I'm going to try if adjusting the valves doesn't work is the fuel filter. Plugs look ok, have no idea when they were replaced last. Normally I would just go ahead and replace em just to make sure but the two places intown I checked for prices want $72 total for them If I was sure they were the issue (fouled or black) I would buy them no problem but just to replace because it "might" help is a little steep.

Anyone know of a reg copper plug part number that will work? I wouldn't mind spending $20-$25 to see if that is an issue then when the time come to replace get the good ones but just to see at $72 it's crazy.

sparkplugs.com has NGK iridiums for $7.83 each. thats where i got mine.

iridiums are the only plugs our RAs can use.

and btw, changed my plugs last week after 45k miles. got 270 miles to the tank with mixed city/highway. booya!

I've used the e3 plugs with a gas mileage improvement to add, well when I wasn't stomping on it.
