Product Description

The NGK 96008 Laser Iridium Spark Plug (service code DILKAR8K8G) is engineered as a direct replacement for select modern V6 gasoline engines requiring high ignitability and long spark plug life. Its laser-welded iridium center electrode and dual-fine platinum ground electrode deliver enhanced spark consistency and extended service life compared to conventional plugs. A solid copper core and premium ceramic insulator further promote excellent heat transfer and combustion stability, while the built-in resistor minimizes electrical interference with onboard electronics.

Verified for use on popular models such as the Infiniti Q50 and Q60, Lexus LS500 and LX600, Nissan Z, Toyota Tundra, and Toyota Sequoia with 3.0L-3.4L V6 engines, the 96008 iridium plug meets or exceeds original equipment specifications. It is ideal for routine maintenance or scheduled spark plug service to help maintain smooth starts, responsive throttle, and efficient combustion. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended torque and gap settings when installing.
