Spark Plug Question!!!

alright guys i need some of your help, ive been looking but i havent been able to find a place where i can figure out something, the mitsu dealer told me i need to get some hotter plugs than the stock ones, cuz im sort of hard on my driving and for some unknow reason, they cant figure out but my car is eating up sparkplugs, the stock ngk ones. So what i need is help to find out where or what are some hotter plugs than the old stock ones that come with the car

"the mitsu dealer told me i need to get some hotter plugs" implies they know what is wrong. "they cant figure out but my car is eating up sparkplugs" says the opposite.

I don't think hotter plugs are the solution.

hopefully you're not getting dirt stuck between the sparkplug gasket and block. if you've got a leak, it could be sucking in more air and burning the sparkplugs from the leanness. if there's a lot of dirt down where the sparkplugs are, you gotta clean them without letting dirt fall into the cylinders.

You need plugs that run a step colder.
