Putting in the plugs was a major job for me but with the help of the forum I was able to do the job myself!
Thanks to Everyone all over the country for the help!
I still love this car, it is a real kick in the A'' to drive!
Everyone that can get 93 octane gas has it made, we have that great California petrol out here that is still 4.50+ a gallon!
Best regards from the San Francisco Bay Area!
I'm trying to be an open minded sceptic ejavis. The key word in your post is "unbelievable" . The difference that you feel, in my opinion would have been felt after replacing the plugs with any brand plug if you had a bad one or two. If the Pulstar plugs are really that good wouldn't the automotive manufacturers jump all over the new technology? They would buy the patents. How about the racing teams, wouldn't they want increased performance? Im sure that Honda with all of their research would recognize the advantage of using the Pulstar plug.

I had 25 years at Champion Spark Plug Co. and between my father, grandfather, and me, we had 92 collective years there. I was on the team there that developed the iridium 100,000 mile plug. Before that, I managed a Shell Service station where we did tune ups. I'm not suggesting that Champion Pugs are superior to others. What I recommended to customers at the Shell station is "put the brand and heat range of plug in that you took out." If I replace the plugs in my Crossfire I'll put in what I take out, but that won't happen, hopefully, for another 92,000 miles. The exeption to this is to go to a colder plug for racing. The copper core technology in todays plugs gives a much greater heat range by using a narrower design tip to avoid fouling while the copper dissipates the heat to avoid wear.

I'm not being critical of you ejavis1, I'm just trying to show a different point of view on the subject.

I hope the Pulstar's continue to work for you. I'm still open minded but sceptical.
