Stock plugs?

I was wondering if somebody can help me on where to purchase some stock ngk plugs for my 95 max. I'd rather use the copper too, which are probably cheaper anyway.

I just looked at advanceautoparts and they carry the ngk's Now I'm not sure if I should get he platium for 10.00 or the reagular v power copper for 1.77. Is it worth it to get the platium?? I mean thats a big price difference. Does it make any performance difference??

The platinums lasts longer, about 60k miles, if you want, you could get the coppers just make sure to change them around 30k. Yeah I feel you, it's kind of hard to find NGK plugs around my area. They mostly carry crappy Bosch.

You can buy some stock NGK platinum ones off of eBay. I know you want the copper ones, I'm sure you can find those too.

Usually the plugs are $12.99 each where I live, but I got 8 for $15! The eBay guy I purchased them from is dixyjess. He sells all kinds of plugs, so if you can't find it on eBay from him, email him. You won't find a deal as cheap from any retail store.

By the way, stock is the way to go. If you're wondering, the NGK part number is PFR5G-11 and the stock number is 2647.

I bought the v-power over the reagular copper is there any difference? Bad or good?


btw my max only gets about 7000 miles a year so copper is fine.
