AND you shouldn't put American plugs in an Italian car , and no American
plugs in a French car and no american plugs in a German car, BUT you
can put Japanese plugs in any car and German plugs in any car
As far as I know (someone correct me) there are no american off the
shelf like a LODGE for Alfas, or Equiem (for MI16), or a Bosch for the
505 Turbo BUT Jap NGK have all styles except an exact copy of the LODGE.
Maybe Champion makes some specialty plugs but good luck finding them.

Subject: [Peugeot-L] American plugs in a Japanese car
I am having a debate with a coworker. She insists that you shouldn't put
American spark plugs in a Japanese car. She claims to have had many
experiences that verify that absolute truth.
She has a Chevy Prizm. It started running very heavily this past Monday
when we had a day filled with rain, sleet, snow, temperatures into the
20s, and she ran through a deep puddle and almost didn't get through.
Her mechanic changed distributor cap, rotor and spark plug wires. They
found (surprise) water in the plug wells. But worst of all, they found
that three of her four plugs were AMERICAN!!!!
I'm telling her this is sheer nonsense. I think it obviously resulted
from the big puddle and freezing temperatures (she has no garage).
Has anyone heard this nonsense. She says you can't put American plugs in
Japanese cars (Prizm is a Toyota, of course), but you can probably put
Japanese plugs in an American car.
