7 November 2019 - Spark Plug change-out

Started to replace the spark plugs today.  Started with the passenger side of the engine( plugs 1 - 4).

The plugs that are installed are NGK TR5s.  I decided to go with E3 plugs and see how that works.  So I bought 8 from Amazon.  Part numbers are good and I did get 8.  But one of the plugs has a poorly welded ground terminal.  It was so bad that two of the three attachment points have spatter and welding material sticking out of the metal.

So I went down to Advanced Auto and bought a few just in case more have material defects.

I was only able to replace plugs 1 thru 4 today.
