DONT USE Copper based lubricant for 'plugs.

Postby Neil Spooner » Mon Dec 31, 2012 2:01 pm

Hi All,
Just a heads-up.
DONT USE COPPER BASED LUBRICANTS FOR SPARK PLUGS!!
It will react with the plug/head, and weld your plugs in so that when you do remove them you will end up wrecking the threads.
Use a graphite based lubricant such as Graphogen easily obtainable from ebay etc.
