Does anyone know the torque specs for spark plugs (2000 230K)? Will a Platinum 4 plug work alright? Thanks.

according to the platnium 4+ box it says 9-17 ftlbs if i am not mistaking, i noticed better power and better fuel economy after the install.

Torque spec is 18 - 20 ft/lb.
For what it's worth, I would not run Platinum + 4 plugs in that car ( same as mine), although I do run them in my Chevy pick-up truck.
The proper plug is Bosch F 7 KTCR.
This is a triple-electrode plug, with the proper gapping for your car. ;)
