Andy, re-read my statement man.

I said mine had been recently replaced ie 80 000kays so werent needed, but I said Andrews may need replacing.

Personally I wouldnt let any plug run beyond 80 000. All our V8's running platinum are done at 80 000kays and even then they can be dodgey, I'd hate to let it run an extra 25 000kays just to save $120 - $150

oh sorry mis read it that way sorry bud, but yea i personally dont see how they can last that long either, i bet you would notice an improvement in performance after they are changed at 105,000km


its funny you mentioned link rods in your earlier post the other day a lad with an adventra come in saying there was a noise in the front, i got in moved out of the car space to take it for a drive, went ove a speed bump and bang bang bang, thought link rods put it straight up on the hoist and sure enough the lower nut on the ball mount had fallen off and the rod was hitting on the drive shaft with the suspension travel, and ill be dammed if i could find a nut to suit the damn thread to, but i did

$12.50 for the NGK Laser platinum/iridium plugs from Autopro and only varied 2 bucks or so from place to place here in Sydney. 20-30 bucks each is nothing but a rip i reckon. Part is LTR6AP-11

oh ok prices must have changed a bit in recent times, is that part number specified for the alloytecs? or was it just pulled off the shelf
