Maybe everyone's wrong and I actually am sensitive. My Dakota got new
plug wires at about 33K, because one of the wires had been rubbing on the
edge of a valve cover and had worn a nice groove in itself. The truck
idled like it was running on 4 cylinders. The MSD's that went in cured
the rough idle. The stock plugs got chucked before 20K.
