I'm getting ready to replace the spark plugs on a 1994 Mustang Cobra...
Any recommendations? Platinum? Brand?

Thanks!

been there

Well I checked with my local ford dealer here in my area and because of the GT-40 heads he told me that that only plug that he had for it was the ford platinum plugs. I have heard more than one person goping with the Autolites regular resistors......and I think that is the route that I will take when I get around to doing mine. As funny as these 94-95 cars are about their idles I will err on the cautious side with the resistors.
Good luck and let us know what you go with and how ya like it.

Click to expand...

Those are garbage, each one of those prongs just blocks more fuel from the spark. AND the spark can not possible go to all prongs, just to one of them until that one burns out and then the next one and so on like that. So if anything they just last longer.....

Stick with Autolite 24's. They are like $1 and some change a piece!

Lots of people on here with bad experiences using platinum plugs. Only the parts stores will tell you to use them because they have had good luck with them.
