whats the code on the box, i've got ngk platinum ones in mine, work fine
apparently, the 2.0 zetec is supposed to use platinum tipped plugs.
whereas the 1.6 uses just normal tipped ones.

NGK's are PTR5A-10, is what 1.6/1.8/2.0 should use.

I just changed my motorcrafts for some Denso irdium plugs and seem good so far.
Ngk's work well too

I always ran the Denso Iridium pluogs, they do cost more but I can honestly say the car ran better with them. :)

Could just be due to putting new plugs in and changing your fuel filter and anything else you have done
