anybody use antiseize ??

just curious if anybody uses antiseize on their plugs when they change them, the only thing i use antiseize on is those damb screws that hold the rotors onto the hubs, it makes them soo much easier to take out

Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

You shouldn't antiseize the plugs. it changes the torque specs, and the specs on the plugs is just a wee bit important.

yeah, I always do, just make sure not to get the crap onto the ceramic and other parts that may be in the combution chamber. Just make sure it is ONLY on the threads.
