Bosch – Platinum+2 Spark Plug (Part No.F1000458519BOS)
from
$19.87
The Bosch Platinum+2 spark plug offers a revolutionary firing technology, which combines the advantages of platinum, multiple electrodes and surface air gap technology for optimum engine performance. Unlike conventional air gap spark plugs, the Platinum+2 uses surface air gap technology. The spark of a Platinum+2 first travels over the surface of the insulator nose and then arcs across the air gap to a ground electrode for a longer spark, without increasing the voltage requirement. Plus, the yttrium alloy ground electrodes help to reduce gap wear and oxidation, extending the service life of the spark plug. Center Electrode Core Material: Platinum – Center Electrode Tip Material: Platinum – Ground Electrode Tip Material: Nickel-Yttrium
Product Features:

Product Features:
- OE-Equivalent and direct fit application.
- Revolutionary firing technology featuring multiple spark paths
- Two yttrium-enhanced ground electrodes.
- Electrode gap is factory set and never requires adjustment.
- Anti-seize and corrosion protection.
