Hey Bob,

Didn't mean to be aggressive with the "myth" comment.  Spark plug choice 
seems to one of those things that gets people's dander up.  What I find 
confounding is how many of us, all upstanding Healeyphiles, can have such 
different experiences.  I do not know Ed or the other Champion naysayers, 
but have no reasons to doubt them (someone correct me if I should), yet I 
and a number of others have had a warm and rewarding relationship with 
Champions.  Weird isn't it?  Champion have remained in business, so how 
systemic can any problem be?

Just to see if I can further stir things up, my only bad experience was with 
Bosch plugs in my baby-poop yellow Volvo 242 (remember that yellow? - Volvo 
called it Safari Yellow - right!).  Perhaps it was the colour clash with the 
purplish pink insulator colour of the Bosch plugs.

Seriously, any theories on how we can have such different experiences?

cheers,

Mirek
