Installed New Sparks Plugs

AceKicker · 08-29-2002

I installed new denso iridium ik20 spark plugs. I wanted to know if anyone else has installed them? I saw a great improvement on acceleration, power increase. If any of u have instaloled them what do u guys think about them. If anyone has any question about them then jsut ask away.

Did you notice any difference in your gas mileage?

Got em in my car, had em about a month and a half...noticed a better acceleration and a bit better gas mileage...they are definitely worth it!

I installed them as well, i noticed a lot better throttle response and the car idles more smoothly. It's worth it if you have the money to spend on them. I wonder if anyone has the plasma solution coils with these spark plugs yet.

Yes!! Where did y'all get them??? Do they have them at local auto parts stores??

Mine was a local parts store in PA called A & A Auto...I don't think A & A has any stores outside PA...

RU Sure the IK20 is what we need in our car, because I couldn't find an application guide anywhere???

Yeah the part is an IK20 for our cars, I have them as well and they work great. I notice slight improvement in gas milage, acceleration, and engine starts. I think they're worth it. I checked them after running them for a few months and the electrode was still in good shape!

Does anybody have an online store to buy these from??? If not, what store did you get them from and what is their approx. price per plug??

Thanks,

Joe

Hi all,
With my stock plug, I need to force my car to 90MPH; but with Ir. plugs, my car can easily go 90MPH. It actually scared me the first time I drove the car after the plug-installation. Highly recommending.

Definitely, I checked mine too and the electrode looked like it did when it came out the box...because when I took out my stock ones, they were all cauderized and burnt up...

Wow guys thats pretty strange that just a set of plugs does so much. Usually you notice zero difference unless your plugs are old, but civic plugs are supposed to go 110k miles. (I would probably check em after 60k miles and every 10 after) But that is strange. Whats the deal with the new plugs? Are they made from plutonium and have 18 electrodes? Ha j/k, really, whats their story?
