What was the model of the +4 plugs you used in yours?

I enquired about +4 for my '86 Vanagon - and the guy told me there wasn't a
model available to fit the Vanagon.

Oh, this is beginning to sound like the synthetic oil debate of recent.

I put single electrode plugs in my Vanagon - engine runs OK.
I put Bosh +4 plugs in there - engine runs wonderfully (much better than
just OK)

All the proof I need to use Bosch +4 plugs.
