How do you change a spark plug

How many forum members does it take to change a spark plug?


1 to change the spark plug and to post that the spark plug has been changed

14 to share similar experiences of changing spark plugs and how the spark plug could have been changed differently

7 to caution about the dangers of changing spark plugs

1 to move it to the Off top section

2 to argue then move it to the air cooled section section

7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing spark plugs

5 to flame the spell checkers

3 to correct spelling/grammar flames

6 to argue over whether it's "sparkplug" or "spark plug" ... another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid

2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "plug"

15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that "spark plug" is perfectly correct

19 to post that this forum is not about spark plugs and to please take this discussion to a water cooled forum

11 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use spark plugs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum

36 to debate which method of changing spark plugs is superior, where to buy the best spark plugs, what brand of spark plugs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty

7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different spark plugs

4 to post that the URL's were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL's

3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes spark plugs relevant to this group

13 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the spark plug controversy

4 to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

13 to say "do a Google search on spark plugs before posting questions about spark plugs"

1 forum lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again.

Funny, but you forgot...

Don't forget 1 to hijack the thread and ask about his tire pressures thus starting an entirely new set of discussions.

Silly boy, the MGKs are the best.

And you can increase the gap from 0.028 to 0.030 without problems on a stock 911 coil.
