Re: spark plugs for 2001 SE V6 Posted by B Millar [Email] (#1109) [Profile/Gallery] (more from B Millar) on Mon, 31 Dec 2007 06:59:30 In Reply to: spark plugs for 2001 SE V6, ndg [Profile/Gallery] , Sun, 30 Dec 2007 21:42:40 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Saab calls for BKR7ES-11 plugs for the V6. The BCPR6ES-11's are for the 4-cylinders. The "-11" at the end just means that they're pre-gapped to the recommended 1.1 mm. I'd recommend getting them so you don't have to deal with gapping them yourself. If you're close to a dealer, plugs are cheap enough that the markup isn't terrible. While 3.80 is pretty bad per plug compared to 1.69 online, you get them right away and there's no shipping charge. I paid $22.80 for a full set for my V6. If you do get them online, go to eeuroparts.com. Best parts place there is. I just calculated the price there with shipping and it was $17.61 so not too bad.
FYI, (you probably already know, but just in case) when you go to change them, there might be crud in where the spark plug lies after you pull the DIC's off. Make sure you get as much of that out at possible with a vacuum or compressed air before pulling the plugs. Good luck.
