Subject:Bosch Three Pronged Sparkplugs

Vanagonians,

I just returned from the parts store over lunch.  Not having owned an
gasoline powered car since 1980, its been a while since I purchased
spark plugs!  Now that we own a wasserboxer I thought I'd replace the
rotor, cap, wires and plugs.  Did you guys know that spark plugs now
have THREE "prongs"!  Never even heard of these critters before!

Anyone out there using these 3 pronged jobbers?  Comments?  What do
three prongs do for you?
