SPARK PLUG GAP IS 0.060

  • Jonah Oneal Mar 14, 2019

    NGK TR55 spark plugs okay for older model cadillacs 1970s - early 90s.But newer cadillac models like CTS STS they use platinum plugs.use what owners manual call for.use wrong spark plugs engine will misfire.

    This plug is a double platinum (rhodium) plug with a single platinum electrode. As https://sparkplugspro.com/ said Platinum has good anti-corrosion and anti-seize properties. This plug is designed more for aviation use.
