Default which spark plugs?

82 Euro 4.7L

probably time to replace the spark plugs.

Does this use the same plugs as the US 79-84?

Do you have a Tech Spec book...might say in there. I don't actually know...You could also call Robinson, he probably knows off the top of his head.

The cheap copper ones. That's what's suggested above.

Don't worry about platinum, or multiple electrodes or anything fancy.

can't seem to find my tech spec book or the information on which plugs to use on a '93. do the later models require a "fancy/super titanium" plug?

Plug information is in the owners manual IIRC.

Page 112 of your 93's manual - Bosch WR7 DTC with a 0.8mm gap.
