never sieze on spark plugs

[dbmg]

I for one have never used anti seize on plugs and never have had a problem with removal or installation...

The modern day metals have gotten more forgiving, that said old habits are hard to break. Anti sieze is a very good product if used properly and in the right places, not only does it fill in the threads lubricating them for future removal, it also helps to dissipate heat and corrosion:s

And it is easier and quicker to add a wee bit of copper grease on fitting the plug than it is to remove the head drill out the threads tap and fit a thread insert then re assemble
Been there did that but not on my engine
In my younger day i would do work for other people and if i did not have the tools for the job they buy them i keep them as payment for the job so i have a thread insert kit for spark plugs only used twice

Very sound advice from one who does his own work, been there done that. I too have several Heli Coil kits donated to me for services rendered, thank fully I have not had to use them on my bikes:s

Bill,
HD gives guidance for the use of Anti Seize in the service manual. So I think you should be OK. Here is a direct quote from my 2008 Touring manual...



I have always tended to torque to the low side of the spec. :s

Thanks again Tank!!!! ;-)

If you use it I think you will like it. But since you are a Premuim member you won't see it at the top of the page as a guest or regular member sees it so you will need to bookmark it or put it in your favorites so that you don't need to logout.

Now that's what I needed -- thanks again and thanks for taking the time to respond.

Search Result - Harley Davidson Community


Try the "Google Custom Search" not the other search...

I can offer you some help that little are aware of on the forum about a search.

If you are looking for something regarding a TIP in the self help area, go to that section (self help area) and use the search in that section instead of the one at the top of the forum.
It will bring you back results ONLY from that area and not from posts on the forum and likewise if you are looking for info on the forum, then use the one at the top of the forum main page.

This is a public service announcement :60:.....:lolrolling

Very good info, thank you emansihstahw
