It used to be NGK9's the last time i bought a set, are these still available as i heard not?

 

dont get the new iridium ones are they aint good for cossies, i personally use 071's on my car as stu recomends em but other tuners prefer others, my mate prefers c59's but they can make a lumpy idle ive heard from some


hope that helps

 

Heard 59s are shite for bigger powere cossies thou ginge thought 57s were the better champ plug?!

Goin from another post thou spadge as said the new motorcraft 071s seem 2 be shit hot!! Porkie has them in his 3door and aparently perform alot better than NGK9s and c57s did

 

I got Motorcraft 071C's, only cost a couple of quid each, but have to change them every 2k or so, still better than 90 quid though!!! How's ya wrists YUM?

 

ok then c57's it could be , its one of them, speak to popeye as he has them in his now and he was explaining em to me

i now got 2 set's of 071's as i was testing my missfire but wasnt them

 

Found that i have 57c's in mine today and i think they are on their last legs!
Where can i get a set of these 071's tommorow and how much roughly?
Cheers...

 

They are a Ford part spadge but i have lost the finis code i had for them, Sorry

 

Look 3 posts up lol I paid about 8 quid for 4, so I bought 8

Edited to say I bought them off Ford dealer, and used my RSOC traders discount

 

[quote="Gadget"]They are a Ford part spadge but i have lost the finis code i had for them, Sorry ops

Not much good to me then Gadge

 

arnt 071 s big escos plugs think ford do them spadge

 

speak to stu as hes got em off the shelf there about 15 or 20 quid, must admit i neve checked as i bought a few things and was toom scared to look at the bill and have to destroy em so the missus dont see em

as for tommorow not sure ive got a new set that i can see if i can get em to someone to drop em off to ya tommorow if its for fordsport , there not far from madmacs house actually if thats a help , they aint been used and are not gapped though so ya gonna need to gap em

 

So are you people telling me that the BEST plugs for my car last 2k and are only 2 quid each

 

i bought new 071s when karl mapped me car and he said they were shite, had to get some c57s

 

doh to late againlol

 

think that ford changed em and now use 701's whish are ment to be different


think craigN will confirm a he done a post about it

 

Does 1120834 sound like a part no.? Got one infront of me with this no. printed on the end.

 

Getting confused now and don't trust you lot
I'll wait for someone to tell me what to get that i think knows what he is talking about

 

Iain different tuner prefer different things

mark@MAD swears by hks iridiums as dave mentioned, stu seems to favour 071's as the ngk platinums aint available anymore

karl now prefers c57's same as i belive SCC do ( dont quote me as ive never used or asked rob)


its a mind field but tbh who ya trust with ya car is what ya get imo

 

Very wise Spadge

YUM, I did see one was in a support, that was the one I shook very carefully last Saturday PMSL

 

Where do i get these from just a normal motorfactors?

 

no spadge listen to the ginger one

trust me 071's ive never had a problem with any plug though but stu removed my ngk9 iridium plugs for a 2 quid each plug,

i take his opinion as he knows what hes doing

i dont as tbh they was fine in my car

 

yeah i know mate i bought my 071s off stu, but karl said they were making it misfire like a pig when on boost so he fitted some c57s which leads me to to beleive

a, 071s are shite

or

b, karl has a big box of c57s in his garage hes trying to punt which is the reason pops has some as well

 

Seems like its gonna be a matter of opinion, how much for a set of C57's BTW?

 

c57s were always sweet for me

 

pmsl

think its just personal opinion tbh

i dont have a missfire caused by the plugs on my car, i had a intermitant miss at 5900rpm ( all 3 times i hit it ) that looks like it was the dizzy cap as that looked rough as fook but apart from that it took 4k miles after i got it back from stu to find it


but i recon stu has a box of 071's and karl as c57's


btw whats ya idle like with the c57's as i heard it causes a lumpy ( but perfectly safe !!!!!!!!!) idle

 

c57's are about 30 quid ish IIRC

they dont last very long either

still cheep, i like cheap

 

071's in my last engine @ 35psi no problemo at all and 071's in my escort no problemo at all they are cheap and work also favourd by mike and harvey aswell as stu the problem with the 071 is people dont know how to gap them properly! they have to be gapped at 45degrees

 

Not bad, I'd still try the ones that cost 2 quid each first though, then there's nothing lost if ya don't like em

 

correct mate

1120834 retail price around £12 a set

i did have a set of NGK 9`s in mine cost £90.00 lasted about 3000 miles

The ford ones cost me £4.50 for a set thats £85.50 cheaper and do just as good of a job and would prob last longer

 

yeah a bit, but i think they idle differently on greys anyway so wouldnt know as it had them at the same time. Also i had a fooked coil so it may have been that and not so much the plugs, who knows, who cares as its running spot on now

 

is that a fann assisted oven or normal and for how long


ps: explain the 45 degrees gapping as i never got that ence why i get stu to pre gap mine

 

I jus smacked mine on the floor

 

pmsl

 

I used to use ngk9's but Mike R and Harvey now both use 701's or 071's whatever they fooken are so thats what I use I think they last longer than 2k though as thats the reason Mike stopped using ngk9s iirc...

 

halfords do a QUALITY plug

£4.99 for 4 I think.

HTH

 

motorcraft 071s last a good 3k in mine change them at same time as oil. they run spot on nice idle, peak boost 34 psi holds 2 bar.£12 a set personally these are the best plugs i,ve ever had.
