As I'm usually a day late and a dollar short, what are E3 spark plugs? BTW, I'm old and slow too so please forgive the ignorance...


DUH, I just saw the ad on the side of the page....

I'd be interested to know, also. I'm kinda skeptical about it being a performance upgrade when you're shielding the electrode so much.

Well there have been split fire and some other types but have never been that impressed when I have tried them in a car ...one of you guys by some and let us know..I have done my part and got it started....dont really see why having three places for the spark to jump would make much diffrence...although I have used the perma gap plugs on my boat motor...we will see if anyone has tried them maybe
