Don't be afraid to switch to Japanese! - I'm running a 2002 Ford Focus 2.0L with 304, 000 miles. Great plug so far. My first experience with iridium plugs. I was a little hesitant to go off the reservation and switch from Motorcraft to NGK and iridium NGK at that! The lady at autozone freaked me out a little bit saying how you should just stay with OEM Motorcraft blah blah blah blah, but after reading desertcart reviews as well as searching YouTube and the rest of the internet, I took the plunge. I already have logged almost 2,000 miles, & I have seen a huge difference in gas mileage and smoothness. A little bit more power too. I had some confusion on whether I should gap them to a different setting other than the factory. Specs I saw for my vehicle were 0.50, they come pregapped at 0.44. I went with the specs. Just make sure you have the correct gapping tool to adjust it. From what I understand it doesn't take much to ruin these plugs . It's been running fine with no misfires or check engine light, so, so far so good. Review: Perfect for my 4 cyl Mazda6! - I really know very little about cars, but was looking to improve the performance of my 2009 2.5L 4cyl Mazda6. (It's a great car, but I have always felt it could use a little more horsepower.) After reviewing all of the helpful reviews on desertcart, my local mechanic dropped them in, since I would have no clue what to do, and voila! Instant improved engine performance! I did purchase new tires at the same time of installation, so certainly the combination of the two would result in improved overall performance, but you can really tell the engine itself is working better. I have not noticed an improvement in mpg yet, but mostly because I'm doing a lot more accelerating. ## Features - You can depend on NGK for quality and reliability - Constructed from durable material - Fine Iridium tip ensures high durability - Features superior anti-corrosion and anti-seizing properties - Iridium alloy has extremely high melting point, perfect for today’s high-tech, high-performance engines - Fit type: Vehicle Specific ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001MU28F2 | | Automotive Fit Type | Vehicle Specific Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #330,615 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #58 in Automotive Performance Spark Plugs | | Brand | NGK | | Brand Name | NGK | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Motorcycle | | Core Material | Iridium | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 199 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00087295143445 | | Included Components | Spark Plug | | Item Type Name | Spark Plug | | Item Weight | 45 Grams | | Manufacturer | NGK | | Manufacturer Part Number | LTR5IX-11 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | We warrant all products sold to be free from defects in material or workmanship for a period of 12 months or 12,000 miles whichever is greater. | | Model Number | LTR5IX-11 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | 4344 | | Thread Size | 14mm | | Top Material Type | Alloy Steel | | UPC | 087295143445 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Motorcycle | ## Product Details - **Brand:** NGK - **Core Material:** Iridium - **Thread Size:** 14mm - **Top Material Type:** Alloy Steel - **Vehicle Service Type:** Motorcycle ## Images ![NGK (4344) (4344) LTR5IX-11 Iridium IX Spark Plug, (Pack of 1), Pack of 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dd7r4eUoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great plug for ford focus.

I have a 2005 Saturn Ion and was originally told to use Platinum Spark Plugs in my car, this was not the case and they caused me to have problems with my engine. I bought these and put them in and the problems that I had ended almost immediately. I would recommend them to anyone needing a good spark plug for an older model car that needs something to spark at a higher temp. ## Frequently Bought Together - NGK (4344) (4344) LTR5IX-11 Iridium IX Spark Plug, (Pack of 1), Pack of 1 - NGK 4344 LTR5IX-11 Spark Plug (Iridium IX) (pack of 4) - General Motors ACDelco Genuine Parts 19431551 Sparkplug Wire Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/14103947-ngk-4344-4344-ltr5ix-11-iridium-ix-spark-plug-pack](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/14103947-ngk-4344-4344-ltr5ix-11-iridium-ix-spark-plug-pack) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
