Incidents of spark plug fouling on early 1987 passenger vehicles equipped with 90 degree V6 and V8 engines and R43TS spark plugs can be corrected
by the installation of a higher heat range spark plug. The new plug is a type R45TS equipped with a copper core, P/N 5613957.
A copper core spark plug can be identified by a "dot" after the "AC" logo on the porcelain portion of the plug.
(Example:
AC.R45TS). Every effort should be made to insure that the plugs to be installed are copper core type.
