Hi Whatat oil can i use in my Ford Fusion with the FNR5 trans. Apart from mazda and Ford oil of course. thanks

I'm changing them at 70,000km because to me they do not look good anymore.I took one out and it had a gap near .080". I know GM says there good for 160,000km but why wait that long? Anyway I will be using Ac Delco's or NGK's. Thanks everyone for the reply's

I have only 68,000 km on it.I took out the front 3 and they look no more good to me.The center electrode is real short and the gap is up to between .075 to .080.I also had a 1998 malibu 3.1L and changed the plugs at 70,000 km.I'am sure you can make them last up to 100,000km by regapping them...

I check for a vacum leak and found none.Then I cleaned the IAC and the air intake and waited until the next morning and everything was fine.Thanks alot guys.

Thanks for the replys. I'll give those ideas a try.

The intake gasket was changed 3 months ago.

It's only started doing it the last couple of weeks.I also seems the idle is a little rough when warm also.

I have a 1998 chevrolet malibu 3.1l v6 with 45,000miles.When I first start it in the morning the idle goes back and forth from 1,000 to 1,400rpm for about 1min.Then it runs fine.It's not giving me any codes.could it be a sensor even if no codes show up or maybe just cleaning the air intake body...
