I used  those 3 prong Bosch plugs for awhile on my 87. They will wear out
your
wires or your coil -- they did this to mine. My mech said they have  the wrong
resistance and put me back on stock bosch vgon wires. My  2cents.

   More BS from those who do not know !  My personal  '87 Westy and all my
customers Vans use the BOSCH W7DTC 3 prong plugs and I have  not change any plug
wires or coils due to the use of these plugs.  In  fact my personal Westy
with over 400,000 km on the clock is still running with  its original coil and
second set of plug wires which I installed along with the  new engine last year,
only because it made sense to have all new ancillaries  with the new engine.
