Re: New Bosch Platinum Plugs



Every time I've used Bosch Platinum plugs in an older car (1987 325e and 1990 80
4cyl) I've always had problems.  2 different techs have told me that they run too
cold for older engines, and they are only right for cars which specify them.
Anyone else heard/experienced this?
