I's love to, but we don't have many 2.2L owners in our neck of the woods.

Most out here have the 2.4L.

Thanks for the research folks. Owning a 2.4 I guess I'll wait a bit and see where the sparkplug thread goes

No worries Mike, we're thinkin the same.

So how about a VVT mod for the 2.2 so we can be more like you 2.4 people.

I have a 2.2L if you want to run some tests on mine once I get it back from the dealer. I am going to swap the plugs anyway.

well i just went to autozone the guy wasn't pay attention got all four for 7.15
and when i changed mine i noticed that after the idle was a lot smoother then it was before also i look at the tip of the old plugs the first one was black and the other three were white does that mean anything or is that normal.

Nice steal; literally.
Check this for your plugs.

It's possible. You can check the gap with a spark plug gapper, or to be more precise use feeler gauges and you will know.
