Reply With QuoteIt is a good practice to put some antisieze on plugs. It doesn't take much and I always use a little when installing them in my Pro 1's!

I have heard somthing about using anti-sieze or something on the threads of my spark plugs for aluminum heads?
I have changed plugs allready and not noticed any problem removing them.

Just wondering :idea:

Yup. A little goes a long way.
the only problem with antisieze is that it is not good for grounding the plugs we had a problem at daytona in 02 with ower truck misfireing and the guys from msd told use not to use antisieze any more he said it is ok for your owen cars but not for race cars use motor oil just my .02

That was my next ? what to use?
Motor oil?
I was going to try air tool oil?
Ideas?
Thanks for the reply's

They make a special anti-sieze made for conductivity on battery cable ends etc, it's copper colored. I have some around here somewhere. I wonder if it would be suitable for plugs in alum heads to solve any conductivity issues.
Anti-sieze is like doing a fat chick...... You think a little bit won't be a bad thing, next thing ya know the stuff is all over you and impossible to get rid of.....

ya what rex said!!...but do use something on those threads or go buy a heli-coil set....
rrr...that's pretty funny...but true. The shit just jumps out of the can and before you're done, no matter how careful you are, it's on your elbow, your nose, your shirt, and it dosen't wipe off!
I've been using it for near 30 yrs on plugs, and never had any grounding issues. You're not supposed to dip the plug in it!Put it on the threads, and the plug will ground on the tapered seat, or the washer. Threads aren't meant to be electrically conductive, anyway. The seating surface is. Heat is another subject.
