The Fusions are pretty expensive and I am just wanting to see how well they hold up before I push them alot.
Any updates here? Did you keep the magnecor wires when you made the switch to Fusion plugs?

Having both the Plus 4's for nearly 70,000 miles and now the Fusions, I have to say, I am OK with the Fusions but liked the additional low end torque I got from the Plus 4's.

since the fusions have 4 ground electrodes too any idea why the low end torque is better with the plus 4s?

are you still getting better fuel consumption with the fusions?

I swear by Iridium plugs, guarenteed for 60k, better MPG and will last 100k with the right plug wires.

From the E3 website:"for your car, light truck, lawn and garden equipment, motorcycle, ATV, snowmobile or personal watercraft."


does "light truck" just mean anything that's not a Semi?

Because at 3 tons i wouldn't call a Discovery "light"...

A "light truck" is definded as a full size SUV, 1/2-3/4 ton pick up truck or cargo van.
A 1 ton pickup truck to a 26' straight truck is "medium duty" and "heavy duty" would be a big dump truck, semi, etc.
Compact SUV's, mini vans and all cars are "passenger" vehicles.
Anything with out four windows and doors is a "cycle"

I put one of those e3 spark plugs in my chain saw, it kicked my butt. I was using my saw 15 minutes straight and then it would run out of gas.
Put that plug in and now I give out before the gas does. Seriously, almost 30 mins on one tank of gas. For those of you who went to public school that is half the gas that I was using before.
Same thing with my lawnmower, and it has been in the same mower going on 5 years with no loss in power.
4 years in my snowblower.
You can buy them for your Rover at Advanced Auto.
When I get my Magnecor plug wires those are the plugs that I will be buying.
They are also going into the wifes Volvo.
