Either will work fine and will give similar service life.

You are kidding, right? Double-plats are needed due to the way the coilpack works. It has nothing to do with the wires.





No, I am not kidding. Your information is out of date.

Do you have any idea HOW the Contour's coil pack works???? Spark goes one direction on one bank, then the other direction on the other bank.

Yes, I understand completely how a waste spark system works. Demon already piped in and explained it so I won't repeat the technical facts.

I will repeat that the old requirement for double-plats is now obsolete when the new fine wire plugs are used.

If Autolite is making a new fine-wire plug with platinum on both electrodes, it will certainly make the dinosaurs happy. They don't have to learn anything new and they still benefit from technological improvements. Ah, ignorance is bliss... and someone will be happy to profit from that lack of knowledge.
