OK NO PROBLEM I'LL SIT HERE AND LOOK FOR IT. AND WHEN I FIND OUT I WILL TELL THE NEXT PERSON THAT ASKS. BECAUSE FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME IT TOOK YOU TO WRITE "LOOK FOR IT, IT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED" YOU COULD HAVE JUST TOLD ME. WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT JUST TELLING SOMEONE?? I HOPE I NEVER TURN INTO YOU.

ANYWAY I ORDERED THE MAGNECOR'S FROM TONY MIKE AND I WILL BE BUYING THE IRIDIUMS FROM AUTOZONE SINCE THEY ARE THE SAME PRICE AS THE +4'S ON TONY'S WEBSITE. PLUS I DONT HAVE TO PAY FOR SHIPPING. I'LL GIVE YOU A RING WHENEVER THE PLUGS GET HERE. THANKS

MIKE MY DISCO IS A 2002 WITH 79000 MILES. WHAT PLUGS AND WIRES WOULD YOU RECOMMEND?
I would suggest you stay with the Magnacor 8 mm wires and Bosch Platinum Plus 4 plugs.

I agree with Mike, and in the future, you may want to post ing the Discovery section, you will get faster answers there. Not too many remarks like ajh....

Look through that forum if you want to see what kinds of things to look for, and there is a 60K service list Mike has posted that is a must if you don't know the full history of your truck..

1 Bottle of Lucas Transmission additive
1 Can of Spray Carb. Spray
1 Can Of Brake cleaner
8 Spark Plugs, I use Bosch Platium Plus 4's
1 Set of Magnacor 8mm plug wires
1 Serpentine belt if not yet replaced
2 Bottles of SeaFoam


60,000 Mile Service or Major Service for High Mileage Used Vehicle just purchased
Bleed the brakes
Flush and change the power steering fluid adding one bottle of additive
Service the tranny adding one bottle of additive
Flush the coolant system
Do an engine flush before changing the oil

Add fuel additive to full gas tank
Change both of the diffs fluid
