These Platinum Spark Plugs Re-useable? Check Pictures.

[Andi]

Hey all,

I recently changed my spark plugs and checked up the spark plug numbers and it seems that they were platinums in my car. The part number is PFR6G and I took some pictures to ask you all to see if I should re-use these plugs or just throw them out?

Oh and which part is the actual 'tip' of the plug that could be damaged? Is it the part off the hook or the tip that actually protrudes from the middle of the sparkie? I believe there was a small tip/nipple on the hook that I may have slightly rubbed/chipped off when checking for the gap, should I still use these plugs?

Cheers all,

Andy

Is it just the image, or are those gaps massive? how big are they?

The tip is the bit on top of the ceramic.

Must be the picture. The gap is 0.8 on all of them. I recently put in BKR6E's in and apparently they're 0.8 gap stock (pretty sure I checked as well to make sure) so I might not change the plugs but will give timing a check and araldite/silicon the coilpacks.

Your platnium is shot! New fine wire platnium should look like this
