Thumbs down Stay away from Bosch plugs

I had Bosch platinums in my truck. Ran like crap after some time. I'd accelerate and the engine would hestiate and buck as if there was a fuel problem.

I put Autolite double plats in to replace the Bosch plugs and haven't looked back since. It runs better than ever.
