hey guys, I bought new plugs again (cold) and I'm a bit confused.

Does our cars need cold or hot plugs?

What would be better for a stock engine?

What the different between those too?

Plugs are NGK V-groove nr: 2756 BKR6E-11 (cold)

according to NGK numbering code; the 6 in the spark plug part number refers to how hot/cold it is and for a stock lanos engine you should be getting a 6 spark plug so you are on the correct track.

for more info click "Manufacturer's Numbering System" at the left bottom on the following link:

You want to go to a colder plug when running nitrous or turbo..... otherwise.... stay with the stock plug heat range. (which is 6)

Actually I'm using the same plugs you are RR_Kroz123. I've got NGK V-Groove (V-Power) BKR6E-11 plugs. I think they work great.

You'd have to look at my blinking CEL at 70mph thread

I don't think it was the plugs though... it's something else

My cars running like crap.

I never gap the plugs but with these I did gap them (.044) and the cars not running good, sometimes when I am at a stop light the cars tends to not pickup that fast and sometimes it sounds like a boom I think my cars misfiring or getting to much gas.

I have also used NGK V-groove nr: 2087 - BKR5EYA but I didn't gap them and the car did not do like the new ones I have now.

I'm thinking right now that I'll be better with the stock ones the dealer has. (Also NGK but 2 leads)

Pls help guys

yes you are better off with the NGK dual electrode plus the fact that the BKR5EYA plug is colder than what is sepacified for your engine.
