[T3] Marigold's story

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

Dennis,
	 I would have to agree on the use in more modern cars. One thing I know is that when used in modern ignition systems they tend to last longer. I got well over 100k on a set in my 99 Chevy and could never get that on an older HEI system in my 77 Chevy. I tried them in my bug years ago and they seemed to ware much faster.  Maybe this was a fluke but I tend to lean on what I have observed.  I run Bosch coppers W6 or W7 on my air cooled and Sometimes NGK I have a set of ND Right now only because I had them and they were new seem to run just fine.

I'll have to save this email for a troubleshooting check list. Great job!  I didn't know Bosch made platinum for our cars.  I had been told for years all the way back when they first came out that they would only work in modern cars with electronic ignition. That old point ignition systems didn't have enough power to fire platinum properly.  Learn something new.
