There is little I can find about Ruthenium spark plugs, except it's the new sliced bread, better, last longer, etc etc. Ruthenium seem to have two visible pointy electrodes of whatever fancy metal they are advertised. Not sure about the replacement interval, but it's a very long thing like 100k Km. I always thought the Laser iridium meant double iridium electrodes, but now that I look closely I can only see one ? Price is identical, actually the Ruthenium are a few cents cheaper, but that's negligible. On the right, standard iridium that are OE on the car. So, spark plug replacement time for the Mazda (2.3 engine). This should make changing the spark plugs in our 3 Ford OHC engines a snap. I bought a one piece 10" long swivel magnetic spark plug socket from Auto Zone for ~$13. By then we should have around 46-47,000 miles on the factory plugs. I'll definitely change them by late summer if there is no problem sooner. ![]() We have just over 40,000 miles on the Explorer now and it runs great and the engine is smooth, but typical Ecoboost noisy outside of the vehicle and quiet inside. I bought a set from Rock Auto when getting other stuff, I think the Motorcraft plugs costed about $4.50 each, a bargain. I think your 1.6 EB uses the same plug as our 2.3 EB, the Motorcraft SP-537 (CYFS-12Y-2), iridium. WHY I want to replace my factory Motorcrafts in a 1.6 EB with only ~20K miles on them.Įasy enough to do on this platform, so worth 'the bother'. What vehicle did they come out of? Was it a Turbo DI engine? Time will tell.įor only 70,000 km or about 44,000 miles they seem well worn for iridium plugs. As someone else has said, they look fragile. Only about 70K km on them, but I'm glad I did - lots of wear on the ground electrode on the old plugs, to the point where the gap was about 50% larger than spec. Iridium is expensive, so it is used sparingly.Replaced mine yesterday.
