As well as checking for spark check you don't have any vacuum leaks on the 
outers, although two equal leaks seems unlikely.  The inners and the outers 
*do* run slightly different, but shouldn't be that much.  It is the tip of 
the insulator and the electrodes you should be looking at BTW, not the 
threaded outer portion of the plug.
