    Y2K Bug

    With the warm weather today, I decided to get my '60 out of the garage and go for a spin. Guess what, Y2K Bug got me as I fouled at least 1 plug on the first start of the new year. Par for the course I guess. Guess my next task will be a plug change on "THE PLUG EATER". Funny, it made 7000+ miles this summer to Oregon and back on a single set of plugs. Guess I will try Champions or another brand. Anyone else had experience with "Autolites" I have always heard they were actually the best. Your thoughts???????? P.S. Its judging days are probably over as it has everything except a "BOWTIE Award". So long shielding.

    Ran Autolites in the race cars, very good plugs. Champions are good for farm im plements, lawn mowers and chryslers.


    I never had much trouble with AC plugs, don't know why the 60 eats plugs? It it oil or fuel?

      I never had good luck with AC plugs, always used Champion in the Z06, my race cars and offshore race boats. If you can get the heat range correct there should not be any problem with any plug.

        Mornin' Jim,


        I have used Autolite #75 in my 1966 350 hp coupe for 30+ years. This is a non-resistor, extended tip plug that is one heat range hotter than an AC-44. I think it's a very good plug. You might take a look at the plug wire that services the fouled cylinder, could be you are not getting the spark to the plug. Good luck, Bill
