Only 2 I've worked on have genuinely failed, those owners who thought they had failed or were told they failed by internet forum experts hadn't. Nothing more than bad connections or damaged plugs/wires (repairable), cracked casing due to constant tinkering and over tightening, the latter causing most failures I've delt with. The Common denominator in your experience is you and your internet plagiarism and tinkering.
I'll make no apologies for correcting misleading or wrong technical advice, especially when it's going to put members through needless work or expense. i.e all iridium plugs sold on Ebay are crap, utter bollocks just your experience.
