hi sages- this may seem like a kindergarten level question, but how long should you wait to allow aluminum cylinder heads to cool down before removing spark plugs? most mechanics books say to let it cool down so you dont strip soft threads. my merc and the 245 92 have aluminum cylinder heads. coincidentally all my plug jobs were done early next morning so i never thought about it . thanks tons oldduke
