Hello all.  I know this is probably an old tired topic but my
search through the archives was not to fruitful.  I have a 91
Jetta 16v with a 1.8L head.  I was wondering what plugs to run.
The PO used the Bosch triple electrode plugs and when I had to
take it in for a tune-up, the shop (very respectable) said that
they suggest Bosch platiums for 16v vws and that is what is
currently in there.  Then I heard that the platiums have too hot
a spark and can cause detonation.  I read a post that said to use
either the Bosch triple electrode or the Bosch Silbers.  I guess
I just want to know what the rest of you use and think.

TIA,
Jesse Walz
