Is that okay? It's the dual tipped plug, and I ****ing went in there with a printed out parts list. I just checked my bag and they're the dual tipped, and I am doing my maintenance tomorrow, and they're closed then. I would get them at NAPA or whatever, but I get a discount at Mitsu and I'm broke so... Any reason I should NOT run these in my car? Not modded aside from a cat-back custom with a shredded flexpipe and a dop in K&N. Also, any advice on what I would use to gap them? I have a single tipped ring style gapper, and I don't even want to look at that thing with these dual tips in my hand.
As well, I have been advised to use Anti-Sieze on them during installation...is that recommended by the DSM community? I trust you guys a hell of a lot more than I do my father-in-law...when it comes to this car. I bought it from him and he knows EVERYTHING! DSMTuners and DSMCA are all a bunch of idiots I guess...>_>
Thank you in advance for your help.
 
I ran those kind on my car for over a year with no problems. Then once the cold weather started then my car started to act weird so i changed the plugs again and its fine. You should be good.
 
Okay...I was just making sure. After searching a lot, I kept on reading that no plug comes pre gapped, but the dual tip does? I just want to make sure...
 
If you'll look at the tips, you'll see they're ground to clearance, not gapped like regular single-electrode plugs.
They are the plug called for in your Owner's Manual. You can run them with confidence. Next year, get a set of the BPR6ES because they cost less.

Any real-world reason for more than one electrode or contact area (i.e., ND U-Plugs) remains to be discovered. The spark's only going to take one path. It isn't going to fork, and further pulses are also going to take that one, least-resistive path.
