NGK Ruthenium plugs

I thought I remembered a lot of my chemistry from school, obviously not!

we forgive you. that was a very very long time ago...

But not long enough!
Ruthenium was discovered in 1844.

I'm running them. I did a tune-up when I first bought the truck at the beginning of the year and threw a set of these in there. they seem fine to me. About 11 months and 14k miles of running them. No issues.

I've ran these in the past and have no issues. Solid 40 plug

I will be changing my spark plugs in the summer with the Ruthenium LTR6BHX-PSPE from Iridium LTR6IX I have now..
I always believe in getting the best whether it's over kill or not.
It's like running Hi-Test, you don't need to but the extra HP and fuel economy, keeping things in the combustion chamber, Cats and O2 sensors clean pays for it's self in the long run.
So if I don't need to change them as often and I get better performance how ever slight it might be, I'm good with it.

Also since I'm Supercharged the recommended gap is .28
And I've seen Tuners say .28 to .30 on a Tuned 6.2L will minimize misfire and and make it run smoother.

I just learned something about our dual spark plugs.
I always wondered why the spark plugs look different when pulling the old ones out. It's good reading.

I installed as gapped from NGK .28. Hope that is good on a tuned 6.2L. Those plugs were fun to replace! Haha

.28 is what I gapped mine but I'm running the Whipple. I think you'll be fine.

I run the Ruthenium's 1 step colder than stock on my Gen 2 93 stage 2 cobb . Work very well getting ready to change again in next few weeks . 15k miles on them . I had 2 sets of ruthenium stock heat range and sold them to my neighbors , for their Ecoboosts . I like the design of the ground strap unshrouded the center electrode .

Question here, I’m putting in

NGK Ruthenium 1 Step Colder Spark Plugs HX LTR7BHX 95605 for my Gen2 Raptor, what is the recommended gap and torque specs??​
