This is a double post (one for here, as well as 1980-1986 Ford F150, I wasn't sure which thread to put it in, sorry)

Hello my friends! It's time to do routine maintenance on my ol' 300inline 6, and I was wondering what the best brand of Spark plugs and Spark Plug Wire sets to use in ya'lls opinion. I'm looking for maximum fuelefficiency coupled with maximum power(That poor motor has 300,000 miles on it, and unfortunately the previous owner didn't take very good care of it at all, so needless to say I need to suck every bit of power from it as possible at this point)

Cheers

 

well everybody have a different opinion ,some like autolite others preferd motorcraft , i went with the e3 and belive me it runs very smoth ,as far as wires well you do whats best for you. i went to napa and got their top brand velden wires top notch life time wires cause if you have a problem with them just take them back and you get another set, of course i never had any problems, do a pcv , clean the carb bump the timming two degrees at a time two twelve or fourteen degrees, readjust the carb , new oil filter. keep us posted lol.

 

I used Taylor spirail core low resistance wires and Autolite copper cores.
YMMV

how you like those wires rikard...

 

I first used them years ago and its usually part of my first tune up when I buy a vehicle. The ones on my Burb had over 100k on them and the ones on "Nelly Belle" have over 40k. I have never had an issue on Chevys, Ford, Dodges, or Jeeps. I'm sure other brands are just as good but I try to stick with what has worked well for me.
