Let's assume your engine is well running.
How often do you have to change the plugs if you drive only 4-5k mls per year? Any difference between older air cooled and h2o engines? Thanks for the inputs! |

Do you guys use a smear of anti-seize on them? Id say the biggest reason to change them or atleast pull and inspect is to keep them moving and not seize up and strip out the heads. A few of my freinds have cars that theyve never messed with the plugs and they are very stuck. Iv also heard sandblasting is a no no. Soft wire brush and carb cleaner is all you need
