No iridiums. OEM plugs are Platinum.

Let me ask you this...

if i do indeed fall in that category and I had a misfire..could that lead to my sparkplug broken off and eventually a broken valve which then led to my blown engine????

I have had an open case with American claiming it wasnt my fault in this incident but since reading...i think this may be the cause of it....

let me know ur input..

also, i have a new engine by the way which i had to pay out of pocket...let me know..thanks!!
I would say it's possible. A loose plug can't conduct heat away to the head as well as a tight one, and will get hotter than normal. The electrode could fail due to overheating.
