   Yeah dont waste money buying 'performance' spark plug as they wont be any different to standard ones.

   way back in the day I tried splitfire plugs on my mk1 xr2 and they were rubish, then put in bosch super 4 plugs and it was noticeably smoother and pulled better, so I've always used them.

    Your problem could be elsewhere, try putting a cleaning fluid in your tank & replacing the plugs
