I searched and didn't know if we had talked about the different types of spark plugs. I will need to get some new ones for the 30k service and had gone over the basics of the ones available.

So we have the standard (copper I think), then platinum, double-platinum (is this just a gimmick?), and iridium. I think that all of them have a gap at .044?

Quetion is, is it really worth it to spend the ~35$ for Iridiums? What are the stock ones considered? Copper?

Thanks for anyone's input on this.
