Product Details
Bosch OE Fine Wire Double Platinum 8171 is engineered around OE spark plug specifications for vehicles that call for a double platinum design. The fine-wire platinum center electrode and platinum-enhanced ground electrode help control erosion at the firing surfaces, which supports consistent spark delivery and long service life in normal ignition system operation. This spark plug is a 4-cycle, non-projected, tapered-seat design with a 16 mm hex size and manufacturer heat range 6.
The Bosch OE Fine Wire Double Platinum line focuses on factory-equivalent fit and ignition characteristics for modern engines that require precise plug geometry. For Ford F-150, Ford Mustang, Ford F-250 Super Duty, Ford F-350 Super Duty, and Ford Transit applications, Bosch 8171 is a direct replacement option when the vehicle calls for this OE-style double platinum configuration.
Common Issues This Spark Plug Can Address
- Rough idle caused by worn plug electrodes
- Misfire conditions related to excessive gap erosion
- Hard starting from degraded ignition performance
- Reduced fuel economy from inconsistent spark delivery
- Loss of throttle response due to aging spark plugs
Installation Notes
- Verify engine application and match the listed fitment before installation.
- Use the preset gap as supplied; do not adjust unless the service information for your engine specifically calls for it.
- Inspect ignition coils, boots, and plug wells during service to avoid repeat misfire concerns.
- Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specification for tapered-seat spark plugs.
