    Local NGK Supplier ?

    Looking for a set of TR6ix plugs for the snake.

    Anybody locally keep them in stock ?
    NAPA can order them, but they don't stock them.

    Prior to going to LethalPerformance for them, figured I'd check locally.

    Thx

    I know Oreilie's carry TR6's no clue what a TR6ix is though or if they carry them.
    Buying muscle/sports cars/regular cars/trucks, send me info, I pay cash or credit card if that makes you feel better!

          If it's a regular TR6 they are like $1.25 each at Oreilies and Auto Zone.

            The ix are the iridium version of the TR6 which seems to resolve the part throttle stutter issue I have been having since I put the TR6's in last year. They run great at WOT, but anything less, and it sucks. Have gapped from .037 (stock TR6) down a level at a time until now they are at 0.028, and they STILL stutter at part throttle.

              Maybe not... can get an entire set of the iridiums for $58 through LethalPerformance, problem is I was hoping to have them for this weekends test and tune... hence why looking locally.

              Thanks for the idea though!

                  Fleet Farm has NGK
                  When we got to my place, I already had a candle burning. It was by "Glade", which I think you pronounce like the singer Sade, because it is an exotic candle that smells just like real pine.

                    well i meant factory motor parts is one of their motorcraft suppliers (who also sells ngk) that is in eagan mn, meaning they could probably get them same day if they have them in stock, worth a shot??

                          I used to run those plugs but since they are a pain in the ass I only run autolights and they last way longer, While spraying anyway

                            spray
                            Just figured I'd see if the Iridium's really live up to their billing.

                            TR6ix are NGK 3689 (one range colder than stock)
                            TR7ix are NGK 3690 (two ranges colder than stock)

                            Either will work, if one is more readily available than the other, I'm all over it.
