I've been changing spark plugs since the 50s. Back then we changed them a lot!

I once had a '66 Dodge with a slant 6 that would foul plugs every two weeks or so. I had about 5 sets that I glass beaded at work when I ran out.

I have never used anything on plugs, although I always wipe down the threads on used plugs to clean them.

OTOH - Click and Clack do a funny discourse on those 100,000 mile plugs. "If you leave them in for 100,000 miles, they are in there FOREVER!"

They advise people to remove and reinstall plugs on a yearly bassis if they do not need to be changed. Besides, you can look at them while they are out.
