I bought a new Renault 5GT Turbo (about 12 years ago) and was told the plugs terminals were gold (And believed them when it came to it's first service! as they cost me �100 for a new set) I have since found out it was a scam. True, gold is a great conductor and is used in electrical connection points (mostly CPU's) but the temperatures inside an engine are way too high for a spark plug to use pure gold as an electrode! Prove me wrong petrol heads and modders out there!
