(score: 1): Author: Chip Old <fold@mail.bcpl.lib.md.us>; Date: Sun, 24 Aug 1997 11:44:25 -0400 (EDT); That could be true only if the Loctite reduces friction in the threads considerably more than oil or anti-sieze compound, which is unlikely.

I suspect you already know some of this, but here it is anyway. If plug fouling was the only symptom, I'd say your plugs might be too cold a heat range.

The installation of hardened seat inserts is a repair technique that dates from way before our T-Types were built. The age of the head has nothing to do with it.
