Pulstar Iridium spark plug
Need to know if the VX can handle a hot plug same for coils?
I am getting 13 mpg and would like to improve mpg so has anyone tried this plug or have any feedback as to max temp on head?

update
runs like brand new with these plugs

Sorry! More HP = Less MPG. That's the way the game is played. Simple. Also, anything but the OEM plug is thought to cause other problems. Talk to Merlin at St. Charles Isuzu to learn more.

Ya plugs isn't the problem.. 13 is in the norm.

Also, more power doesn't mean less gas milage always. Depends on many factors. My Mitsubishi Evo was getting 17mpg stock as an average.. now with 150 more hp over stock it gets 24 on average. Best is to have a tunable car and make the engine breath better. But ya the vx is fat and under powered so its going to drink. We get about 17 on hwy and 12 around town.

Many think the NGK Platinum spark plugs are the best for our trucks. But there are a few brands mentioned in these threads:

On summer gas my wife and I average very close to 20 mpg, all stock '99 models. With winter gas we average 15 mpg. Fact of life winter gas gives less mileage.

As far as power and mpg is concerned, with normally aspirated engines, there is no way on earth with more hp you can get more mpg, all things being equal. It's against the laws of physics

Also, to get better mileage plugs won't help.







Also, to fix mileage don't look to the plugs, rather clean or replace the fuel filter and/or oxygen sensors.

Agreed. It depends on the factors involved.

I once had a mid 80's Mustang GT with a stock engine that would get about 20 mpg Hwy. I swapped the motor for another one utilizing higher compression heads with an aftermarket high-performance valve train, a higher performance cam, high-performance intake manifold, after-market full length tube headers, and a block that had been bored over standard to accommodate high-performance pistons with custom Total Seal rings. The intake, heads, and headers were all smoothed and port-matched to improve flow efficiency. Altogether, I netted an increase of about 155 hp. The improved flow efficiency and power-to-weight ratio of the new engine in the same car meant that the new engine didn't have to work as hard and my Hwy mileage as a result went up from about 20 to 28-30.

Nobody has ever succeeded is adding horsepower to a VX engine and improving MPG...nobody!

[UltrAsOniC]

LMAO, horsepower this vx is a monster when it comes to that maybe my problem it like a freaking corvette I just want to ride longer without seeing bj or Costco and there water down gas that was the problem solved now only go to Sunoco premium gas wow drive all week.


Now I really need someone to get on top of this I like to change spark plug to this but before I do so can the VX coils and engine handle a hot plug for long periods of driving?

spell checker i have a bad habit of driving and surfing lol

Sadly,I don't think this VX is long for this world.
