Your websites killin' me (web design is a hobby of mine... seriously, it's not that hard to do better) but I figured it out and it seems to have gotten the job done.
The $7/ea 4-prong NGKs I have now got the better of me today when the car wanted to stall itself out instead of launch from a stop... that and the rough idle, I'm willing to try a $17 fix.
6 new BRK6Es are en route... I hope they do me better then the plugs I have now
for the rockin' prices!

I had the exact same symptoms with my old 4-prong, now the car no longer wants to stall while starting out while it's warming up .. but also is smoother when it's totally warm! It was sputtering enough to take the slack out of the drivetrain and cause a bit of a vibration low down in 1st gear sometimes and now that has smoothed out! Not to mention the car pulls like a freakin freight train on the highway again... woot!Originally Posted by antik

I really shouldn't be this happy about spark plugs... but I guess that's what happens when you neglect them for a LONG time.

How do you guys put up with your cars doing that?
And thanks for the order antik, the website is a work in progress.The catalog is hosted on a different server so we can't edit the code.

I'm not putting up with it... I was trying to give the plugs a chance given they're not even 10k miles old yet (hell they may not even be 5k old: I'd have to look) but I decided today they're going out. I'm really hoping to see an improvement

go ahead and try to order a set yourself for a 1995 m3. It wont give me the option to purchase the NGK BKR6E. Also, when you type NGK BKR6E into the search feature, it cant find them....What's the problem that you're having?

Just lots of things about the site would turn me away from it if I didnt know who you were and trust you. Simple things like the gray font on black background..... hard to read. Stuff like that. It is almost like whoever built the site didnt care too much about it. Check out techno550's trm site, that is nice. Copy that

If you enter BKR6E into the search and press GO instead of using the enter key, they should come up.
We're still working on the site, but I like the feedback. The coding for the catalog isn't ours and is awkward to manipulate. That includes the font color. Hopefully we can get it right soon though.

Pulled my old plugs... realized what I had replaced were 4 prong Bosch and what I was running now were two prong NGK BRK6EKs.
If I got the read right, the car's running rich. I'm hoping to blame the plug... 3500 miles and the things don't look so great: definite carbon build up on the threads closest to the strap.
The new ones feel better: the car seems a little more willing to rev and more forgiving. The rough idle isn't there but I don't remember if it was with the other plugs or not.
We'll see how things are in a few thousand miles but I was pretty surprised to see the old plugs in the shape they're in... especially once I checked my log and realized they're only 3500 miles old
In order not to continue to keep this thread off on the wrong track...

Are there any discount coupon codes for BF.C members?
I'll be ordering rotors, pads, sensors, complete brake job parts soon.
Thanks.
Nice site, BTW!
Member
No additional discounts from the catalog prices. I'm fairly certain that you won't find lower pricing on those items though.

Yep, copper plugs are a 7k-10k mile plug. Copper is super soft and part of the reason why they work so well as a little bit flakes off with each ignition.NGK BKR6E

yeah the website is messed up, try to order the NGK BKR6E and some shopping cart comes up with 260 bucks worth of parts, and it wont let me do anything!

The website works off of sessions. So because several others have used that same link it won't work for ordering, only as a reference. To order use this search link and enter BKR6E and CLICK GO, if you still have problems let me know.

Seems to work, another order for them just went through and will be shipped today to Florida.

I think that a secondary air pump only affects cold emissions.
