914World.com _ 914World Garage _ NGK Spark Plugs vs. Bosch Plugs

Posted by: BenT Jun 29 2006, 08:32 PM

Hi Folks,

I ordered some plugs for my 70 /06 with the stock 2.0. My parts guy sent me NGK's instead of the usual Bosch that they send me for my VW's. It's not like he did not have any Bosch plugs available. He recommended the NGK's. Of course he took off for the weekend after leaving me a note with his opinion.

Would someone care to share their opinion on this?

TIA,

BenT

Little broader heat range, work well. New VWs and Audis run NGKs from the factory.
Good plugs. The Cap'n

Thanks, everyone. Sounds like I'll be installing the NGK's. The sole Japanese vehicle in my personal fleet likes the NGK's too. I just haven't used it on anything else.

Cheers,

BenT

hi.

The last bosch plugs I bought were made in India not Germany, maybe that is why your guy switched to NGK.
