Get ready to replace those plugs next year. Not the greatest.

I agree with prairiefire, just bought 4 ngk cz256(replaces cy55) I will update but I'm sure they will outlast both the warranty ones(from amazing-8 months) and the hyundai's-6 months, CVI recomended to use them last year and I went the cheap route. I will update how the NGK cz256 do.

Well, starts great, one glow cycle at -5c and presto! Would have been 3xglow cycle and still puffed out a tonne of white(raw fuel) for about 10 seconds. Great so far!

Good to hear. Need to have a reliable winter vehicle. I need mine to start at -27 c without being plugged in. It doesn't like it but it will if needed.

The temperature plays around -25 and -30 for 2 weeks now and My van start whitout to be plug. Some time after 2 or 3 time but still starting. Even this morning at -38 with wingshield. But with my coolant heater it's easier to start and the engin temperature goes up faster.
