I've just brought my self a 2001 AU2 SR. It has a set of Denso iridium spark plugs in it. Just wondering if they could be the original plugs or if ther've been replaced
Regards Rev |

you're right mate, happens to the best of us.
Ford didn't ship the AU2 with iridiums so they've been replaced as some stage as you say.

Funny story about that. I serviced mums AU III Fairmont last weekend, and found Denso Iridiums in there.. the centre electrode had burnt away completely, leaving a spark gap of about 3-4mm. No wonder it had been running rough. I couldnt beleive it, I've never seen plugs that burnt.
