I run NGK's in all my vehicles and I've never had the seafoam foul them, yet.

I use ONLY AC Delco 41-985 Iridium plugs in mine. Never any problems. But to simplify my retort.,.....Bosch never finds it's way onto my trucks or cars.

I'll vouch for the AC Delco 41-985 Iridium's another + is they where only around 3 dollars a piece if I remember correctly

Don't even get me started on "the all knowing parts guys". Last time I asked for a set of TR6's for my truck the guy at the counter had to get the manager. The manager then went to a book and asked "what's this for a mitsubishi or something". when I told him it was for my truck. He shut the book and walked away and left me standing there. All while condescending me about putting NGK's in a Chevy. What a douchebag! Luckily I had an empty box w/ the part number in the truck so I could get the right plugs.

Sorry. Had to vent. This message board is great automotive therapy.
