    You will need Platinum Plugs for Gas.
    If it's not a Symptom its not relevant, and if its not relevant I don't care!

    Holden genuine plugs are pretty good and well priced. Last lot I got from a local dealer from a bulk pack they had cost me about $2 each. My car runs on petrol and after the recommended 45000km change interval the plugs are not worn out at all. They are japanese and have a groove.
