Jesse:
Bosch Silbers (F6DSR) were the OE plug on the 2L 16v. Others have reported
using the Beru Silverstones with good results. I know that a Beru plug is
mentioned in the Bentley, but I don't know its number.

Subject: Spark plugs?
Hello all. I know this is probably an old tired topic but my search
through the archives was not to fruitful. I have a 91 Jetta 16v with a 1.8L
head. I was wondering what plugs to run. The PO used the Bosch triple
electrode plugs and when I had to take it in for a tune-up, the shop (very
respectable) said that they suggest Bosch platiums for 16v vws and that is what
is currently in there. Then I heard that the platiums have too hot a spark and
can cause detonation. I read a post that said to use either the Bosch triple
electrode or the Bosch Silbers. I guess I just want to know what the rest of
you use and think.
TIA,
Jesse Walz
