Gotta love stupid-human tricks
Liz's Easter Egg (Metro) got plugs Saturday. As she bought it, it had one Delco, one Champion & one Bosch. REALLY, dude?!

It's possible however unlikely that the previous owner intentionally put a different brand of spark plug in each cylinder in order to test which one had the best longevity and least fouling

Maybe it was an attempt at automotive witchcraft for better MPG.

Add equal parts Delco, Champion, and Bosch to complete the combustive brew.

They all looked about the same. But it runs better with three fresh Delcos.
