Product Details

Platinum Power™ Spark Plug by Champion®. As the leaders in precious metal technologies as well as F.I.S.S resistor technology and MLR™ technology, Champion spark plugs provide enhanced ignition and longer life.

Features

  • Platinum center electrode reduces gap growth, lowering the voltage requirements, in turn reducing the chance of misfire
  • Thin center electrode and v-trimmed ground electrode enhance ignitability and reduce quenching
  • Heat-active alloy maintains stable operating temperature under varying engine loads

Champion pioneered the use of iridium in aviation and industrial applications nearly 30 years ago. Champion® Iridium plugs feature an extremely fine-wire iridium center electrode and "laser-locked" platinum V-trimmed ground electrode to ensure superior service life and erosion resistance. In addition, the iridium fine-wire center electrode and platinum V-trimmed ground electrode deliver Champion's trademark ultra-sharp spark focus. Iridium is the precious metal of choice for today's O.E. engine manufacturers worldwide. That's because of its stabilizing effect on ignition voltage and its excellent wear characteristics, which can extend the tune-up cycle for many engines.

For over 110 years, Champion® has been a world leader in the manufacture of spark plugs for a wide range of cars, SUVs, trucks, racing, and marine applications. Using the latest technology, from iridium and precious metal technologies, to F.I.S.S. resistor (Fired In Suppressor Seal) technology and MLR (Metal alloy Low ohm Resistor) technology, the company develops, engineers, and manufactures spark plugs in a number of materials and designs. Champion also offers a variety of glow plugs, spark plug wires, and other ignition system specific wiring that meet the industry’s toughest standards.

Work great on an F150 V8
I bought these to replace the defective two piece OEM plugs that break off on my 2005 F150 V8. These are specifically designed to prevent breakage upon removal and can handle a lot of torque because they are a one piece design. The dealer wanted to install so called improved Motorcraft plugs and I said no way. Once the old plugs were out and these were in, the engine seemed to run a little better. Buy the way, the longer you wait to change the plugs, the more likely you will end up with serious engine damage.

So Far, So Good
I used these to replace the OEM plugs on 2005 and 2007 Ford F-150's. If you've been paying attention, you know most of them need to be replaced, BEFORE they get too old (IE: "carboned" up). These are a much improved design over the OEM version. Seem to work great, so far, after about a year and 30,000+/- miles. Maybe slightly better gas mileage... A little expensive, but we think it was worth it to eliminate a VERY expensive and difficult future problem of broken off plugs.

Exactly as described!
This is an exact replacement and works great. Fixes slow start and rough running engines. Followed the replacement guide and ordered this spark plug replacement for my machine. It fit perfectly the first time and I won't have to replace it again for a while! Very easy install. I will definitely buy these again.
