| they all say they're the best.

I've bought 7 sets since 1980, lowest resistance is best, my newest
set has just 2 ohm/ft : uses stainless steel wires coiled on carbon
cores, resemble Magnecor www.magnecor.com/magnecor1/truth.htm
: Magnecor australia's prices are incredibly ( 2½x too ) high -
7mmŲ A$158, 8mmŲ A$168, KV85 A$210 per set for a CRV !

+ve electrodes of all the NGK plugs I owned wore out incredibly
fast, 3-4x as fst as Champion / Nippondenso, worst brand I know
: in 12-90, 1 of these factory fitted on a Mitsubishi 4G15P
engine could not work @ all after 3mth use.
