Default 97 Accord SE spark plugs

Hey, just got my Accord a couple weeks ago and want to do a tune up just wondering what spark plugs I should use? I have 97 Accord SE coupe 2.2L auto. Thank you in advance.

For all vehicles (car or motorcycle) I go to NAPA store and tell them what vehicle I have and
that I want Iridium plugs (last a long, long time).
Whatever they recommend I buy. No problems.

I also have a 97 SE model, and used the NGK HE62 spark plugs for years with no problems.

Might want to consider changing the air filter and PCV valve also.

I have found that hondas like the plugs that are spec'd for them. NGK is what I use. While the car will run with other plugs in my experience it doesn't run as smooth or as happy.

Engineers designed the engine to work with the spark plug they spec. I don't have the degree to challenge them.
