Source? Context? Must be historical; continental Europe doesn't use such a thing except the troy ounce for precious metals (but if it is historical, it is certainly wildly simplified as there were far more states back when continental Europe used such measurements, which would have had their own measurements).
Btw. I'm m pretty sure ball bearings are not in inches in Europe. Some plumbing standards and bicycle wheels (at least nominally), and the square drives on socket wrenches are in (fractions of) inches though.
My Acura dealer in New Jersey wants $480 to replace my spark plugs (6 cylinders) in a 2012 TL with 120,000 miles. I think they're pricing is nuts so have held off doing it. It's recommended to replace them at 100,000. The plugs are made with some special metals that last long. Give me a break!
These are ancient. Troy ounce was adopted in England, but there's as many different pounds as there are tribes. Metric system is (after Troy measures) the first real universal weights and measures.
In the US, autos and aircraft are metric seems like everything else is SAE US version of English inches etc. We need metric!
Uhm why would you go to the dealer after the warranty period? Find a decent independent shop!
Could be like my BMW where there is an ignition coil as part of each spark plug cap, and the labor involved is more complex than it used to be. The coils might need to be replaced at the same time, too.My Acura dealer in New Jersey wants $480 to replace my spark plugs (6 cylinders) in a 2012 TL with 120,000 miles.

Well, I only get a new car every 10-15years, so I'm not up to speed on those things.Most everything has been coil-on-plug for a long time.

I had a 1995 car that was coil on plug, Fords had it 25 years ago. It's not new technology.Well, I only get a new car every 10-15years, so I'm not up to speed on those things.
"The other thing with leaving them in that long is they can corrode to the cylinder head." Would not be a performance enhancer.
I thought this thread was about paper ratio and not about cars.
I can get a free loaner car from the Acura dealer. I also like Acura parts which in this case i just found out are $40 each or$240 plus labor. With a discount I asked for, they're now at $428. No coils or wires just plugs..
From Rock Auto the original plugs are around $6 each. I suppose they need to pay for the free loaner somehow.

What about the alt process stuff like steam? Steam powered cars are really interesting ( I was going to say cool, but steam is actually rather warm)Where’s Sean, he needs to start a Autrio site, you know, Gas, Diesel, Electric.

Well I'll find out Thursday. Thanks for the advice everyone.

Any time the real world and the photography world intersect, anything can happen!

If you spend any time on car related sites, you may come away with a less than stellar opinion about products from Rock Auto (and I expect some other sources).
There are probably a number of apparently compatible but still different plugs for an Accura.
EDIT: for clarity, I'm saying that one can find a wide range of quality from sources like this, not that this particular source is any different from others.
Square and round are two dimensional. What if I told you bales are 3 dimensionalSquare (rectangular) or round bales?
