It's with some trepidation that I report having installed new spark plugs
in HER '99 Honda CRV today. I fear I'll be severely ostracized because of
my chintzy ways. You see, instead of spending $50 or so for some of those
double platinum iridium triple irradiated $12+ each plugs, I bought 4 for
$7.66 at Auto Zone. :-(

Thing is, the NGK's that I put back in were identical to those the factory
installed, and I've never removed, 105000.3 miles ago. I kinda figured if
that thing was still firing on all 4 with 0.080" gaps, it might get sick &
die if I fed it that fancy stuff.
