huh. well ... ??? i'm not having any problems (that i know of) with them, and it 'seems' to be running/idling a bit better. i'm coming up on a plug change in a few hundred more miles and am planning on putting the old standard champions back in. i'll see what the shape of the 3-prongers are, and whether it 'seems' to be running/idling any worse/better/same/whatever.
