Re: Everyone's fav spark plugs/wires/etc.?
Yup, I've never had a problem with them. Are you running a heat
range colder for your pump?

Actually the OEM plug specified by Jeep for 2003 to Present is now a NGK
ZFR5N.

IMHO, NGKs are a far superior plug to most any other without trying to be
some gimmicky junk like Splitfires or Bosch Platinum +1,2,3,4,etc.... I will
probably get flamed for this but,..... We may make fun of the Ricers in
their Hondas and Toyotas, but the Japanese can build one hell of a motor. I
would be hard pressed to see a better engineered motor than a Honda V-TEC
and they all use NGKs as OEM plugs. My wife's 2002 Honda even came from the
factory with the new NGK Iridium plugs as OEM. I am stating this and I have
owned a FJ-40 Landcruiser, 3 TJs, and a '79 CJ-5.

Re: Everyone's fav spark plugs/wires/etc.?
I knew that was coming Bill and I am on your side. However, you must admit
that it is pretty ironic that the "iconic" American Jeep is now owned by
Krauts and running on Japanese spark plugs. Fat Man and Little Boy took care
of the militant part and now they are just better engineers than we are
because we only allowed them to become that post-war. The Big Three:
German Engineering, Japanese Manufacturing, and American Marketing
Regards,
GK
PS - I also own a "real" Jeep. A rust bucket, AMC CJ-5.
