I'm needing to change plugs on a newly purchase 98 3.0 Ranger. After looking through spark plug threads, I'm deciding to stick with Motorcraft. Problem is, I'm getting different Motorcraft plug numbers depending on where I check. A couple of spots reference AWSF32PP as the OEM plug. This apparently is an older number/product and is not available. When I punch in my vehicle on Motorcraft.com, I get a SP413(32N). The SP413 is a nickel/copper plug, and I'm questioning how it can be a replacement for the original double platnum. Rock Auto takes me right to the SP432. When I check on Advance Auto, they come back with SP432 or SP413. If I search on the OEM plug number in Advance, they come up with a bunch of equivalents but none of them are Motorcraft. I'm thinking that the SP432 is the one to go with that is closest to what came originally, but it sure is confusing sorting through all this.
