Go ahead and spend your $40 and use them.
That will make it all the more pleasurable for me to laugh at you in 2 or 3 weeks when you come back here bitching about them and your newly found issues.
Bosch +2 & +4 plugs are a marketing gimmick. Nothing more.
Plus on top of that they use the poor quality Bosch platinum plug as a base to start from. (i.e. exact same POS plug but with only 1 standard ground electrode)
Already spent the money. I ordered them so I dont think I can return them. I know it was stupid, thanks for reinforceing that fact.
So what in your allmighty opinon are the plugs that I should get?
Motocraft or Autolite double plats.
Part numbers i believe are in the FAQ at the top of this forum.

You know what, I never had any problems with them, perhaps you won't either.

Actually, they are a step BELOW the APP764 because only the center electrode is platinum in the +4 plugs. The remaining ground electrodes have no platinum.
Furthermore, that many electrodes does a terrific job of quenching the spark from the plug - defeating one of the primary goals of a properly designed plug.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

**Double platinum plugs** APP764 is the Autolite part number for Motorcraft AWSF32PP They can be found at Autozone for $3.99 each. Motorcraft AGSF32PPM is the Motorcraft plug of choice. Harder to find though. Quoted from myself from the FAQ...  (what a novel idea to read them  )
2000 SVT #674
13.47 @ 102 - All Motor!
It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

Thanks dude. you got this post in while I was editing the one above. I did look at the faq's but scince I already had the plugs I just wanted to know if there was a good reason not to use them cause there wasent one in the faq's.
Let try not to start another flame war that is so common on this fourm.
