I was wondering if they were spark sensor for voltage produce with some sort
of a volt meter.
They were normal.
Did you check the gapping of the old plug? No two plugs had the same
gapping.

Subject: DML: Changed plugs on my 4.7
Hey guys,
Changed the stock plugs on my 4.7L to Bosch +4 platinums. Damn those things
are expensive. After shewing away a few check engine lights the truck runs
a little smoother. I can feel a definite smoothness in acceleration.
Here's a question. On two of the bolts that hold down the coil unit thing
is a bracket with some sort of sensor connection on it that is not connected
to anything. Any one know what these are for?
Another question, I remember plug colors meant stuff, but I can't remember
what. The Champion plugs were all white with a black dusting over about 1/2
the electrode area. Does that mean anything good or bad?
And by the way, it must have been the gorilla's day off. The original plugs
were barely hand tight.
