Well, after a year of thinking and screaming (could not budge the plugs), I
finally put my mind to it and got them out. Good thing too at 33K, they
were pretty burnt orange and toasty. Way back when I had picked up some
Champion Truck Plugs after watching the list and was able to exchange them
at Pep Boys today for Autolites 3923's. Price of $2.59 compared to $.99
Wow!
Only one bruised knucle and a very sharp funny bone accident on the elbow
(Dog ran behind me and wrapped the leash around the 2-step ladder and pulled
it out from under me just as the plug broke loose = elbow right on the edge
of the fender inside the hood.
Thursday, I had dodge clean the Throtle Body, Injectors, and fuel Rails
Told me I had about 1000 miles left and they would have clogged completely.
After that cleaning, I was able to get about 18 MPG over 100 miles of 50-60
mph. After replacing the plugs, I drove a level road at 55 and the instant
mileage was reading 30!!!!
Definitely an improvement! Now all I have to do is to get a K&N intake,
electric fan, exhaust, TB, Headers...... Anyone need a computer support
specialist for a permanent job? :-)
THANKS to everyone who recommended these plugs!
Chris
