[QUOTE="13btt, post: 740908, member: 3125"] Where does each owner buy their sparkplugs from? How much do you pay? Or perhaps your mechanic replaces & charges you for them? Never let a 'monkey mechanic' put in standard (i.e. non-rotary) plugs as that is the end of your engine as happen to one unfortunate owner about a year back!@ The apex of the rotor crashes into the head of the plug which protrudes through the hole in the rotor housing...bang! I only use NGK BUR8EQ and BUR9EQ in my engine with excellent results as I find using 8 rating lasts longer than 7 rating for a moderately modified engine and provides better power & smoothness. I have seen very poor idling / difficulty starting & flooding of engine from people using racing 10 & 11 plugs of NGK or HKS brand. In case anyone is confused...the higher the number the colder the plug is = it retains less combustion heat which is bad for street engines as they do not provide clean burn & get excessive carbon build up causing further fouling. Standard oem Mazda issue are BUR7EQ and BUR9EQ or with a P at the end for platinum plugs - IMO platinum are a waste of money as they perform slightly worse and don't last any longer whatsoever - in case anyone was wondering on this!
