THey generally give longer service than standard, maybe two or three times as long. They can cost quite a bit more, though, and standard ones now last a pretty long time, too. I generally compromise and get single-platinum, with a bit of it on the tip of the center electrode, rather than double or triple platinum or all the fancy exotic varieties, like titanium and rubidium, whatever that is, and split-fire electrodes they have now. Money-wasting gimmicks, if you ask me.

After replacing the spark plugs on 94' Acura Legend with Denso Iridium Spark Plugs 0.4mm my car does not start on the first crank. Has anyone else used these plugs Any advice is appreciated.?
I'm just now learning about spark plugs, but I read that the ignition system may not recognize the voltage used in the iridium plugs. They require less voltage than platinum to start the engine. The iridiums have a smaller tip, requiring less voltage. The ignition system just doesn't recognize the voltage probably.

What is a fouled spark plug?
Fouling spark plugs can happen when the tip temperature is insufficient to burn off carbon, fuel, oil or other deposits and causes spark to leach to metal shell...no spark across plug gap will cause a misfire. Wet-fouled spark plugs must be changed as they won't fire. Dry-fouled spark plugs can sometimes be successfully cleaned by bringing the engine up to the operating temp.
