recently replaced my spark plugs and came across something unusual, bought a set of plugs for my 88 2.9L they gave me (Autolite 105's). But, the plugs that came out of the engine were (autolite 765's). The difference is that the 105's have approx. 1" of threads and the 765's have only a 1/2" of threads. I took the 105's back and replaced them with the 765's, since thats what was in there originally. My question is, why the big difference in thread length. Do I have different heads from stock (the parts house said that the 105's were the only plug they listed for my truck or is something like a poor man's anti fouling adapter? The plugs that came out showed no signs of fouling and except for normal wear were in pretty good condition.
