Okay, heres the situation:

I see that sparkplugs.com lists its sparkplugs as this:

RE7CL==Leading
and
RE9BT==Trailing

HOWEVER

I ordered the same set of plugs from atkinsrotary.com and they had this on my invoice:

RE7CL== 2004+ Rx8 Spark Plug - TRAILING
RE9BT== 2004+ Rx8 Spark Plug - LEADING

I thought that the RE7C-L= leading spark plug and RE9B-T= trailing spark plug

also, the green and blue tape on the plug wire top signifies the trailing plugs, right?

HELP!!!

 

The L in RE7CL= leading and the T in RE9BT= Trailing I just think it was a type-o

 

high 5 to invasion for beating me to that.......

 

+1....How many miles did you put on old ones and post a pic of how they look if you can....

 

thats a serious typ-o lol

 

oh im way overdue for my 30k maintenance (30,500 miles)

boniface-hiers mazda/kia wanted to charge me 500$ for it, but i figured i'd rather do it myself- not worth it, even if they DO have the world's best mazda mechanic

 

New Plugs


My shitty old plugs

 

The plugs do not look to bad. Also anyone wanting to buy new plugs for the 8 go to www.autopartswarehouse.com they sell for 85 for all 4 with free shipping. One important tip though when you put the new plugs in put some anti-seize on them.

 

Sorry about the tipe err and i have corrected it allready on my books..
Sometimes it takes a outside person to catch things like this...

Its ok Dan nobodys perfect. Hell mazda made it easy for us by putting a T and L by the spark plugs.

 

How long should we be going on a set of stock plugs? I keep hearing wildy different estimates.

 

mazda says replace every 30k so thats what i go by

 

Nah, you're alright- I'm just glad you responded to my PM so quickly

as for responding to PM's and E-mails quickley is something I like to do as it only makes the guy on the other end upset if nothing gets answerd in a timeley manner...
