If you guys want to run your stockers longer, why not pull them out at your leisure and put some anti-sieze on?

After I busted one off in the head and got it out, I went back in with the stock plugs and nickel antiseize on the electrode shield. I ain't skeered!

Words of wisdom. There are quite a few stubborn ones here that seem to hope the problem goes away by the time it needs to be done. I will be pulling mine out every year, cleaning them off and reapplying anti-sieze. It's just like changing oil sooner rather than later, its cheap insurance. The spark plugs are too easy to pull out to ignore something this big.

I agree, but I bought mine used, and I'm scared to death to pull them for the first time. I've only put 3,000 miles on it since I bought it, but I've got to tackle it soon.
