Anywayz, mebby ya need to have a spare plug or two and shut 'er down at the trap and coast into the turnout area. That way the results won't be compromised.

A quick read some may find interesting:

Paul,

As much as I would like to do that, I am more concerned with removing and tightening plugs on hot aluminum cylinder heads. Very few places where I could go thru that cycle around here so a certain amount of contamination is unavoidable.
BTW, that was one of the articles I read on plug reading. One of the reasons I got the NGK BKR plugs is that they were less expensive but provided the heat range I was looking to test. Once satisfied that I have the right heat range, I can then move up to a Platinum or Iridium equivalent.
