Hi,

Were the plugs you pulled old/dirty? If either I would say that is the reason your car was running bad.

Were the ones you pulled NGK copper plugs?

Both NGK and Bosch copper plugs are widely preferred in our cars. I have used both and both seem fine.

The gap spec is .028"-.032" so your old plugs would have been fine in that respect.
