been useing iridium for years now, since they first came out.
as they are now just a couple quid a set more expensive i tend to use them and replace as service interval but every time they get replaced they look as good as new so have never realy needed to be replaced.
i dont buy in to most of the hype but they do seem to last well. as for the increased mpg and better bhp.... if its true then its such a tiny amount i have never noticed it.
Well an update.....
Went out this morning, started as allways on the button with choke.
ran it down the road for a few miles and parked up for 5 mins.
wouldnt start.
finaly once started i did a few more miles then parked up for 2 hrs while i did my odds and sodds in town. came back and started first time.
filled up with fuel, started first time and have now tried for the last 3 hrs to make it do it again and cant.
fingers crossed it seems to have cured itself. wether it was fuel or something else i dont know but touch wood it seems ok again.
will keep a close eye for next few days though.
very very odd thats for sure.
