Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I can tell you ever since changing them my car feels much more responsive and some of the hesitation during starts is all gone
My fuel economy on the same commute has gone up from 16.9mpg to 17.3mpg
Tell me when is the last time you had a spark plug seize on any modern vehicle with a quality plug?
It's the damn header and exhaust bolts you have to worry about changing out so often or applying anti-seize to them.
