Pulled the Bosch Plugs, no number on them
Hey Guys,
My 89 420 started missing yesterday and I pulled out one of the spark plugs and it only says BOSCH PLATINUM, no printed number. The dealer has always tuned the 420 before I retired, but now I have the time and I want to do it. I have always checked the plugs number when I have serviced my other cars in the past, but this is the first time for me to do the 420, and I see no BOSCH number. I figured the dealer has certain plugs he used, but these don't help me. I'm going to the parts store tomorrow, and I wanted this boards input on which spark plugs to buy and everyones opinion. It's a 1989 S420 with 155K miles and always runs Chevron 93 octane gas, (As the dealer had reccomended). Thanks |
I'm not sure if it's the same for the S-class but I know the platinum plugs aren't recommended for the older E-class engines. They use the Bosch copper plugs.

It is common for Bosch Platinums to have their number ( could be just a 4-digit number ), " engraved " on the metal shell, NOT on the ceramic insulator.
When in doubt, get your vendor to look up the proper plug in his Bosch catalogue. ;) |
Use Bosch W8DCO
