Which spark plugs are these ?
« on: 21 December 2006, 11:57:56 »
Good news, at long last I have fitted a new DIS Pack to my 2.5 V6 and the dreadded misfire at 2000 rpm has gone. I also fitted new VX spark plugs of the part number recommended on the forum.

The ones I took out are GM 93183992. they have three electrodes unlike the twin electrode ones I fitted.

Are the ones I took out the original fitments or incorrect!!! ???

My guess is they were incorrect. I had the two-electrode ones fitted to my 1997 2.5, and the 4-electrode ones on my current 2001 2.6, never seen 3-electrode ones on Omega before.

Hmmm, I've not come across a triple electrode one before. Sure you haven't lost an electrode?  ;)

That's abother thing that p's me off with Halfords.  >:(  They seem to think that all cars only have 4 cylinders (& here we all know 6 is the minimum  ;)  ;) ). The last time I bought plugs from them (many many moons ago) I told them I wanted to buy 6 not 8 or nothing at all - they 'found' some singles for me.  ;)
