Brisk plugs suck bad

Five of eight came out fine using the normal soak and pray technique. The remaining three all rounded off, despite using the right socket. Two of them had the stem come out, probably wasn't even attached while I was driving around. One of them broke the same way the stock, shitty plugs do. And why they even rust at all is beyond me. I'm definitely sticking to HT0s from now on. Eat shit, Brisk engineers.

Amen!

wow those look like they came off a junkyard engine. nasty.

I have Brisks in there now but I don't think I'll be buying them again. Way, way overpriced.

Im on my third set of HT0's I replace them every 10k miles or every year basicly, they have always looked great coming out, no issues.

I've tried Brisk plugs off and on with my '99 and '08 Mustangs and they bring absolutely no benefit vs. cost. In my '99, I had one of them break off the tips and drop into the cylinder. Not good and very expensive.

In my '08, I picked up a intermittent miss after about 200 miles. Removed the plugs and reinstalled the HT0's I had removed and the miss was gone competely. Inspected the plugs and could see a couple of cracks.

I'll never buy, nor recommend them ever again.

Holy shit! I didn't know Brisk plugs sucked that bad! Thankfully, no one had the ones in stock I was thinking about ordering. Think I'll go with a different make now.

Hooray for AAA towing. Thanks, Brisk!

Yay... the head has to come out. Thanks a lot for not using stainless steel casings, Brisk.

I'm surprised at the rust. I had a set in for a year that had been used in another car for that amount of time as well. No rust. Do you live near the sea?

That doesn't sound good Ray. Sorry about your luck. Hope all goes well.

I just ordered a set, go figure! The opinions about Brisks and hto's are about the same though.

i don't think there really is a "good" plug for a 3V...

I ran 2 sets in my supercharged F150 without any problems and a set in the Mustang without any problems. They certainly didn't look like OP's plugs when they came out, Jesus!!!

I agree. The HT0 also have a lame design. 2 piece plus they are a little harder to gap.

Yes, 12MM NGK ;-)

I opted for only using HT0 on customer cars, installed a few of the "new technology" SS tipped ones, let's see how good they hold.

there is the spray and pray method but it should also be combined with warming the motor all the way to temperature and then removing the #7 and #8 plugs first.

also if you used PB blaster it is a good idea to get a rag and a thick screwdriver and clean out the spark plug bores.

sorry to hear that!!! I haven't had any running problems with my brisk. I havent tried to take them out put they looked quality to me. Ill try to pull mine out and see what they look like tonight.

i got my stock ones out with 55XXX miles with it warm and pb blaster. No problems at all. Thats my recommendation

Tried them in my Lightning. They sucked performance wise. I had them out the same day they went in. I always had my best luck with NGK plugs.

What NGK is equivalent to the HT0 plug? It is about time to change the HT0 on the blower.
