Spark Plug Question
I use Autolite 65 copper plugs. No issues, plugs are clean and car runs fine. I am not looking for problems... BUT I am interested in opinions on using Platinum or Iridium plugs. Would the car run better, any improvement in performance, durability or....?? Are there any advantage whatsoever using a more 'modern' plug. Any opinions?

If you have a MSD ignition, they do not recommend platinum or iridium plugs.

Iffin it ain't broke, don't try to fix it or re-invent the wheel..................
When you find something that works well for your application, stay with it......

I use nothing but copper core autolites on all my gas engines - even the weed eater.

If you are having problems burning spark plug boots on headers, Bosh Platinum plugs are typically shorter than most other spark plugs...
Jerry are BF32 still made?
