Did Rob get his monies worth out of these three spark plugs. They are out of the left bank of my 1996 Ford Ranger 3.0. They have around 170k miles on them. Truck has 250k miles. Nice color!!! I wonder why my truck still ran!!! Gap is about 1/4 inch. Should be .045. Bad Rob!!!

seems like YES, you got your money's worth. Seems to me you might be working on too many other people's cars and should pay renewed attention to your own!! :rolleyes:

Did you notice on the center plug that the electrode is actually recessed below the ceramic!! Good Ford!!! Bonnet patting for sure. I call this truck "puddin"! "Won't pull the skin off a cup of pudding" She ain't very powerful, but she has been one awesome truck!!
