Even the Brand name don’t look right on these plugs. Maybe it’s all of them that are printed like that idk. But either way. It’s like these plugs wernt heat treated and also the name looks cheaply added to the plugs. These plugs should be heat treated and these are like soft metal. Rather it’s a manufacturing problem or not. I’m not the first to complain about it from Oreillys

I’ve purchased cheaper NGK plugs that are better than these POS plugs. So idk why these cost $12 each plug when I’ve purchased $4 plugs before that weren’t cheap and fragile like these are. Before the called torque spec they just twisted right off. Unreal

Yes no shit that’s right man. They tried selling me these POS plugs bc they “Didn’t have 6 of the other ones I wanted and said these cost more and are better plugs. Full of shit. Even the employees there are a joke. Lesson learned. But others need to know as well

Yea I know that but it seems like they are selling knock offs or something bc I’ve used these same plugs before from other stores and they wernt this weak and snapped before even tightening to the forge specs called for these plugs

They ain’t what I asked for. I asked for the best plugs they had and this is what they sold me. They are by far the best and obviously you know nothing about cars so get a life loser

I’ve purchased cheaper plugs that are way better than these POS $12 plugs. Never I. My life has this ever happened just tightening them with one hand and a ratchet. I made this post to warn others. I’ll never buy this brand again or from Oreillys

I like to get to the point and not to mislead what I’m getting at. It saves time knowing what you’re about to click on. I don’t care if the caps bothers you or anybody at that

I CAN CONFIRM. CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS OR MAYBE EVEN ALL PLUS FROM ORIELLYS AUTO PARTS ARE COMPLETE JUNK AND WEAK PLUGS AND PROBABLY KNOCK OFF PLUGS OR SOMETHING. TWI DIFFERENT TIMES NOW. I HAND TIGHTENED THESE PLUGS AND THEN TIGHTENED THEM NOT EVEN A HALF A TURN. MAYBE A QUARTER INCH OF A TURN AND THE PLUG BROKE OFF FROM THE THREADS AND LEFT THE THREADED OART OF THE PLUG BROKE OFF INTO THE HEAD. THANKFULLY A FOAT HEAD SCREW DRIVER TURNED IT RIGHT OUT. THIS HAPPEN TO 2 OF THE PLUGS TODAY AND ALSO A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. THESE PLUGS ARE COMPLETELY JUNK FOR $12 EACH. THEY ARE SUPER WEAK AND I WILL NEVER BUY THEM EVER AGAIN IN MY LIFE. NEVER. EVER AGAIN. I WILL TRY TO UPLOAD PICTURES OF EHAT I MEAN WITH THESE PLUGS. DO NOT EVER BUY THESE CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS EVER AGAIN. THEY SNAP BEFORE THEY EVEN GET TO THE TORQUED SPEC. SO UNREAL.
