The one over here only had 6 of them too. They got the other 2 the next morning though. WTF are these plugs made for a V6 or something? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

my only question is why would they only have 6 in stock. are they stupid. they should at least have a couple dozen or something.lol. i wrote everything down on paper and just showed them that so i made sure i got what i wanted. then the stupid ars had the nerve and asked if i wanted to just by 6, i told him what the f#$k am i going to do with 6.

does anyone else sell the NGK TR55. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

Man, O'reilly never has all the plugs you need in stock...last time i went, they only had 6 at this one o'reilly too, I drove to another one, and fortunately they had all 8.....Ofcourse, 1 out of the 8 I got were defected, and I was miss-firing like a drunk afghani.....

Replaced the plug, and STILL I don't feel like these plugs are runnin right......

Coincidentally, couple weeks ago, when i went in to get some engine cleaner, one of the employees was holdin a set of ac delco plugs, talking about how they had to be returned cuz the entire set was defected......

I don't know, too many coincidences makes you start to think about how the hell these guys are storing/handling these plugs.....

Most of our site "performance" sponsors sell them. MTI is right there in Houston also. BTW, they had six plugs, some people that use them don't have all 8 cylinders and some guys that run N20 like to have a couple of spares on hand.

lol ****, i work at oreillys and at least at mine we hardly ever have returns on spark plugs. but for something like a tr55 or tr6 plug, ive sold those twice since i worked there, and both times were to me for one set of each. that would be why there isnt a large stock of them.

not even gonna attempt to say 90% of the people that work there aren't morons though. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

when i went to o'riley here they said that they don't carry tr55's. i don't think he knows what he was doing. i think he tried to tell me that they don't exist.
