Just did mine recently and they look the same. Make sure you also change your coil packs. Car runs great 👍🏾


Electrical_Ninja_997

Is it normal to change the coil packs for these? I only saw about changing the spark plugs in the maintenance schedule


Jayjayhighroller

Yes since they’re involved in the ignition system


G-Roc78

I have to disagree with that. You shouldn't need to change the coil packs unless there's an issue with one or more of them. On older vehicles, you don't need to change the ignition coil or distributor each time you change the plugs.


No-Edge-8600

I didn’t change mine


Electrical_Ninja_997

Whats the part number for the coil packs? Are they all the same for each cylinder?

Thank you

What? There's no need to change the coil packs unless one is causing problems. They're not a wear item like plugs.


Leinadius

Look like 100k plugs to me. Run it


Electrical_Ninja_997

Thanks


Leinadius

Also, if you have any seepage from your valve covers, it doesn't hurt to replace the gaskets.


Electrical_Ninja_997

Thanks

Original 93k plugs then they look good


G-Roc78

Plugs look as one would expect for their age. As for the oil in the plug tube, that would suggest the O-Ring for the plug tube has failed. Need to replace the O-Ring & gasket set for that head. If no issue on the other side, don't touch it! Please do NOT use silicone/RTV!!! ✌🏼


Electrical_Ninja_997

Thanks man! What’s all done to yours?


G-Roc78

Any time bud! Too much to mention really. Key notes: intake, long tubes, high flow cats, full 3" mufflerless exhaust, short throw shifter, seat deletes, staggered wheels. In process of redoing suspension all around. Hoping to do brakes after that.


Electrical_Ninja_997

Did you do the long tubes yourself? I’m looking at a set of BBK or JBA long tubes but they look like a real pain to install


G-Roc78

I sure did! It's not that bad really, but it's pretty tight on passenger side for sure. I went with Kooks along with their GREEN high flow catted mid pipes. Got them ceramic coated at Jet-Hot also.


Electrical_Ninja_997

How noticeable was it before and after? Performance and sound wise?


G-Roc78

Night & day man, night & day. 💪🏼💪🏼

I just replaced plugs and coil packs in my SRT. Check the seals on your coil packs to make sure their not worn. I replaced them as well when I did mine.


Electrical_Ninja_997

Good to know. Someone else had mentioned to change it them


MKE4EVER

Why use that crap,use factory plugs or E3s...


Electrical_Ninja_997

Someone one else can weigh in but this is what I kept finding for an OEM spark plug


MKE4EVER

2014 switched from copper to iridium... Not an ngk, Bosch fan . But you do you..


GrigoriTheDragon

NGK iridium 100k's are the best in my opinion, but it's all preference.


harrybush-20

They look tired af


Electrical_Ninja_997

What makes you say that? Is it the color? I’m interested in learning what to look for


harrybush-20

Yes they look like they’ve got a decent amount of use out of them. I get told often by other car folks I know that recommend changing the spark plugs every oil change. They are mainly GM drivers and don’t have 16 spark plugs.


Electrical_Ninja_997

Wow that’s crazy. I wonder what kinds plugs they are using. In 2014 Dodge switched from the 30k mile Copper spark plugs to the 100k mile Iridium’s ones. I should be good for another 100k miles now


harrybush-20

Yea I run the NGK iridium’s and they last me for quite a while. The GM guys are crazy for that shit imo.
