#1 - What is the difference between Autolite 104, AP104, APP104 and XP104?

Using the Autolite Numbering System, we see that the prefix letters designate a spark plug series. 104, without a prefix, would be a standard spark plug, AP104 is a platinum spark plug, APP104 is a double platinum spark plug, and XP104 is an Xtreme Performance spark plug, Autolite's iridium/platinum series.

We can confirm by comparing the specs for these plugs, which confirm that 104 is a standard nickel plug, AP104 is a single platinum plug, APP104 is a double platinum plug, and XP104 is an iridium/platinum plug.

#2 - When searching for 104, there are 3 different versions. What is the difference between Autolite 104, 104BP and 104DP2?

Differences in spark plug specs can be found in the specs tab, however, the bullet points can be helpful in explaining any packaging differences.

  • Autolite 104 has standard packaging.

#3 - What is the difference between Autolite 103, 104, and 106?

Again using our Autolite numbering system, we find that the last number designates the relative heat range within a spark plug family. Within the 10x family of plugs, 103 is colder than 104 and 106 is hotter than 104.
