many mechanics suggest using it to keep spark plugs from getting stuck (corroded) in the head. At least on water cooled cars. Problem is that many people put on too much, and it goops on to the arcing bits.
I have always used a little anti-seize on the threads of my plugs, and a little dielectric grease on the insulator to keep it clean under the plug wire boot. I always be sure to make positive that there is no grease or anti-seize on the conductive bits of the plug, and never had a problem. I won't use it on the 914 since it does not seem to be the reccomended thing to do. Zach |
