Their fuel systems (especially on turbo or k-jet models) tend to run rich, which fouls the platinum plugs. Maybe a late 80s non-turbo model (lh 2.4 or newer) would run OK with platinum plugs. The Bosch copper plugs leak combustion gasses, which will destroy the plug wires"
I went with NGK copper plugs. Thanks to all for the suggestions. The plugs I took out were evidently real Volvo plugs. I didn't have any problems, just wanted to replace these for maintenance.
