300E, Best spark plugs, rotor & dist. cap?
I need to replace the spark plugs on my recently acquired 1990 300E 3.0L. I have heard that platinum plugs are NOT recommend for the 300E. Any truth? What # Bosch plugs do most people use?
Also i checked into the rotor and distributor cap at my local NAPA store and the price seemed unreal?! The quote was $90 for the cap and $33 for the rotor. Those prices were based on a discount IF I qualified. Are those prices pretty common for those plastic parts? What brands seem to work best? |

[QUOTE=Andy_M;1590939]Forget buying almost anything from NAPA or AUTOZONE or ADVANCED AUTO PARTS, etc.{/QUOTE]
Amen to that! Autozone sells an "F" grade line of Bosch parts that are terrible. Dealer Bosch parts or parts from some WEB sellers that specialize in euro cars are much better..
