I see how I got confused.
On this thread he recommends ZFR5F-11: https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/m_28653/tm.htm
On this thread he recommends PZFR5F-11: https://www.hondaaccordforum.com/m_44340/tm.htm
Do you think the second one was a typo? Or is it becuase the first thread is referring to a 1990 Accord and the second thread is referring to a 2004 Accord?(I guess that would make sense) I know at AZ they at least said my 95 V6 OEM were platinum plugs.
Maybe DH will see this thread & explain.

I'm betting it's because of different years. Can you look it up in your own owner's manual?

ZFR5F-11 for my '98
IZFR6K-11 for my '03
PFR6G-13 for my (former) '95 GSR

So.... they're not all the same.

I wasn't really aiming it at YOU. Just sort of a general reminder that all 30 years & a dozen different engines; not ALL accords are exactly alike.

It was handed in a nice and civl manner. There was no need for me to use the newly christened 'pissing match' icon.

well honda had an emission thing on the car so they replaced the plugs, wires, caps, and the thing the wires goes to for free. They said they only used the reg plugs that lasts only 30k miles. so i guess i'll use the double plats the next time i replaced them.

oh yeah and the mechanic said that the from engine mount is cracked and that i should have it replaced before the vibration causes the other 3 mounts to crack as well. is it easy to do it on my own? if not how much should it cost for labor?
