E320 124.032- 104.992 eng.
Which plug can I use without going to a plat. plug. The manual calls for F9DC0 Bosch says to replace that# with F8DC-4, but that is a plat. plug. Thanks, Arthur |

When the car calls for the copper...use the copper. Search the posts here (and archives) for platinum plugs. You will see a plethora of responses supporting this.
I had to get my Cu plugs from NAPA, since all the other auto places (Auto-Zone, PepBoys, etc) only carried the platinum replacements. - John "Would you say I had a plethora of pinatas, Pedro?" "Oh Yes, El Guapo" |

Not sure about the rest of the U.S., but in California AutoZone is having a sale on Bosch copper core plugs. Picked mine up for the unbelievable price of .59 each. But a limit of 16, so no big stock piling allowed.
Changing the plats back to copper smoothed the idle considerably. ------------------ Mike Tangas 73 280 SEL 4.5 |

The F8dc4 is what we use, it is not plat. It is the replacement for the f9dco.

quote: That is my understanding also, but every part store I have gone to list these as platinum. Are the f8dc4's Bosch "Super" series ? Thanks |
