crooked spark plug 200 1990

one of my 1990 240's newly installed spark plugs is crooked and not seated as deeply as the other three (though it is in most of the way). the car appears to be running fine and the spark plug is securely in the socket, so I don't believe there's any compression loss. should I just leave it in there and wory about 30,000 miles from now? or should I have the tricky-to-get-to rearmost spark plug socket rethreaded -- which may also involve cleaning out the cylinder?
