Product Description E3 has taken the best features from traditional spark plugs, such as cut-back ground electrodes and surface gaps, and combined them to create a new ground electrode design.á Surface gap plugs present the flame kernel to the piston (or rotor) more directly, reducing the travel time from the spark to the combustion gases (Although this difference is only measurable in hundred-thousands of a second, at 5000 RPM, they can add up). This avoids the "doughnut" shaped flame front created by standard spark plug electrodes.á This is achieved in the E3 design through the open section at the top of the ground electrode.á E3 spark plugs combine the benefits of additional sharp electrode edges with a cut-back electrode design used on some racing spark plugs.á The increase of available edge-to-edge surface area encourages a more rapid spark discharge while also reducing quenching and shadowing.á The three legs that support the special geometry of E3's automotive plug ground electrode aid in heat dissipation for longer electrode life.á The center electrode on E3 spark plugs is created from a nickel alloy with a copper center core for both improved conductivity as well as heat dissipation.
Amazon.com Product Description
| E3 Automotive spark plugs are a clear breakthrough in spark plug technology. Developed by researchers from leading engineering universities, E3's patented electrode design allows for a better spark, and resulting more complete flame kernal and flame front extending off the electrode, producing better overall localized pressure inside your vehicle's cylinders. This in turn leads to the fuel/air mixture injected into the cylinder being more cleanly consumed, lessening the level of greenhouse gases emitted, increasing energy efficiency and generating more horsepower. A breakthrough in spark plug technology. View larger. | DiamondFire electrode design increases cylinder combustion. View larger. | More power and better fuel efficiency, with fewer emissions. View larger. | Why You Need E3 Spark Plugs As the designated catalyst for the ignition of fuel in gasoline powered cars, trucks, motorcycles and small engines, spark plugs are a small, but constant factor in the workings of the vast majority of motorists on the road. What these motorists may not know is that their choice of spark plug could play a significant role in reducing the level of greenhouse gases that their vehicles give off, as well as increasing overall fuel economy and potential power output. This is where E3 Spark Plug's DiamondFire technology comes in. DiamondFire Technology For the last 100 years, the only real advance in consumer spark plug technology has been to develop ways to make them cheaper. E3 Spark Plug's DiamondFire technology changes all of that through an improved electrode design that provides for more efficient burning of your vehicle's air/fuel vapor, leading to more pressure in the cylinder. These improvements are measurable, confirmed and based on the following design elements found in existing performance spark plugs. First, the DiamondFire electrode directs the flame kernel to the piston more directly, reducing the travel time from the spark zone to the end gases via the open section at the top of the electrode. Given the short time available to get combustion started, the faster you can get the flame to the piston, the better. Second, the physical features of the electrode project further forward into the combustion chamber. This brings the spark zone closer to areas of probable "good" air/fuel mixture and also creates beneficial "micro-aerodynamics" within the spark zone. The initial combustion wave leaves the spark area at supersonic speeds above Mach 1, and the elevated edge provides a kind of chimney effect so the next round of air/fuel mixture gets into the spark zone more easily. Finally, the E3 electrode design features forced edge-to-edge spark discharge, which is the best way to get a spark to leave a surface. This improves upon the phenomena that drove race car drivers to "cut back" ordinary electrode spark plugs in order to improve the spark discharge. The spark itself occurs only when an avalanche of electrons migrates from the two electrodes (anode to cathode). Sharp edges are better at initiating electron migrations, and these accelerated electrons collide with matter inside the spark zone to release additional electrons. This design ensures that the whole population of electrons works to create a plasma channel through which the spark current flows more easily, resulting in an increase in both power output and fuel economy, while reducing emissions in gasoline engines and the build up of carbon deposits on engine surfaces. Key Features: - DiamondFire electrode technology that creates a superior spark and resulting flame front extending further into the cylinder, producing more localized pressure.
- Power increased > 6% to 12% (depending on engine class).
- Fuel efficiency improved > 4% to 13% (depending on engine class).
- Emissions reduced in 2 and 4-stroke engines (after 50 hours).
- 58% CO emissions reduction.
- 42% hydrocarbon reduction.
- Near elimination of performance inhibiting carbon deposits.
- Dramatically longer plug life.
- 5-year/100,000 mile limited warranty.

awsome January 9, 2007 Jarred B. Durre 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I put these in a 2000 Dodge Durango 4.7L. The difference was amazing. Better gas milage and smoother running. Great Product!!!!
E3 works GREAT in my Tacoma... December 13, 2006 K. Frazier (So.Cal.) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I wasn't sure that all the hype over these plugs would prove true... but it DID! Like others, I just had to try em out. I must say that the item wasn't the best finished product I'd ever seen, but performance was noticeably improved. Starting improved (as with all new plug installations), idle was smoother, acceleration was smoother and torque stronger. I also noticed my rig had better and smoother punch in the "over-rev" portion of the tachometer. I'd say these new plugs are well worth the effort. My 4cyl Toyota Tacoma doesn't make neck-snapping power, but it responded very well to what I believe is improved ignition provided by these plugs. I like good plugs, and have used Splitfire Triple Platinum, Denso Platinum, NGK Iridium, and others... I threw out a set of Iridiums when I installed these E3's. I'm not going back to any of the others. I'm an E3 man now. Give 'em a try, I think they'll prove to be the go-to for that little extra boost of reliability and power. Overall, I'm very pleased.
2nd time with e3 products December 29, 2007 Darrell C. Asper Jr. (Columbia PA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I first tried these in a 2002 ford ranger 4.0, I went from 14-15 mpg to 16-18 in the ball park of a 2% increase, and better starting and a power increase.
Today I put a set in my 2007 FJ Cruiser 4.0, again and probably even more noticable power, and I can tell you when I filled up yesterday, I got 15.1 mpg, After I put the plugs in and did my running, and refueled, I hit 18.5 mpg. So yes, I feel these plugs are worth the money, I definitly recommend E3!
Pleased with spark plugs May 22, 2009 Richard Grogan (Ct USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The spark plugs are some of the best I have tried. I have noticed better gas mileage and a little better responce.will buy again for my other car
sparkplugs July 8, 2009 Steven R. Powell (HAFB, UT) these sparkplugs have boosted power, aceleration, and mpg by a couple of miles if i didnt have a lead foot it probaly wud be a whole lot better
