What oem replacement plugs would you put in a stock 99 3.9? Only mods are K&N interior and stereo.

Well that stereo is really going to mess up your spark plugs.

1. You might want to rip them all out
2. Fill the holes with cement
3. top that off with super glue (so it stays in)
4. Finally, set fire to your truck.

I found thats the best way to deal with replacing OEM spark plugs...

...just my $0.02


But serious....do it, then post pictures.

I wouldnt put the champions back in.
Ive never had luck with champions they always fry themselves.

I wouldnt use bosch either cause on every bosch ive installed the little center rod gets eaten away rather quickly.

I would recommend using the autolites.I usually keep them in for ages and when i go to pull them out they almost look as good as the day i put them in.


Btw Dan:
There used to be spark plugs and wires (cheap performance wires will do it to) that would cause interference with the radio.
I seen the wires still being sold a couple years ago. The spark plugs were discontinued due to people complaining they caused engine damage.

Try the Autolite AP3924 or AP5224 (more of a "truck" plug...w/ extended tip) gapped at around .040...

AP3923's are what a lot of people use but with few mods, they usually don't work too great.
