    HAHA--I was about to say the same thing--that should be your FIRST clue not to buy a truck when it needs 2 spark plugs per cylinder to make decent power.

    How could two plugs per cylinder possibly do any better than one? I mean once its ignited it ignited...

    I think one plug fires on the intake stroke, and the other fires on the exhaust stroke. At least that's what I remember being told, when I had my rustang...

    That doesn't make much sense...why would on fire on the exhaust stroke? What would be gained?

    Unburned fuel I would imagine, which I assume lowers emissions.
