The guy must have used a huge amount of Anti-sieze. Some of the technical information seemed off until the 'Engineer' got on the video. I love the example of the anti-sieze brush as that is what both

Jay, well done, but he should have emphasized that anti-seize is necessary on dissimilar metals, like an steel spark plug and an alum head, which is very common today. I would have liked him to show

Yup.. another "don't do this at home, better pay a professional" commercial. I have been using anti-seize on mine since my 1981 RX-7 required it... and have never had a problem, of course you have to

Agreed on all counts... I used to use a bit of engine oil on the plug threads, but a dab of antiseize is, to me, that much more effective, especially when threading plugs into aluminum heads. I still

Yes, same page you just said it better ;) And again, likely started with a cracked spark plug not antiseize... maybe he 'over torqued' the plug and stretched the threads... Ok, still useful to keep t

Spark plug torque Tapered plug - snug + 1/8 turn Washer style - snug + 1/4 turn This seems to be the norm for spark plugs. Tiger Shop Manual - Section B - Page 70 - torque = 15 - 20 ft lbs Ron Fraser

Just a caution to all about specific torque figures. The 15 - 20 ft- lb figure in the shop manual is probably a dry torque figure. Anti-sieze on the threads acts as a lubricant. It will result in a c

Interesting..torque specs weren't up front in the head specs... Thanks, I stand corrected. I will no go out and torque the plugs in the Tiger to 17.5 ft-lbs...is that with or without lube? mayf _____

Well given it was a 60's ford, the engineers would have definintly accounted oil leaking out of the valve covers so it may be with oil... Ok, I have had enough fun for one day :) Sandy ______________
