The "old" plugs (Denso FK20HBR11 (3473)) are shown below (D=driver, P=passenger, 1=front, 4=rear). Close up is of D1 on the left, P1 on the right. Negative electrodes (at bottom of plug) feel pretty rough; a buddy says that's because they run the engine so lean.
Yes... the Placebo effect. I notice how much smoother and better my car drives after I wash and vaccuum it! LOL. Silly but soooo true.
