Dielectric grease propane is not to lubricate the spark plugs for the boot to slide on easier. The reason you use it is to keep moisture out. It also stops corrosion with the top of the spark plug and the spring in the boot. Also you were supposed to only use a little dab of it and that goes in the boot not directly on the spark plug. I don't think there's a problem doing it your way. I do enjoy watching your videos. I always make sure to leave a thumbs up and I it subscribe button after watching your first video. Looking forward to watching more.
@HelpMeDIY
@HelpMeDIY 2 года назад
+David frank yes It insulates mostly to keep out moisture, like you said. But make sure you do NOT put it on the tip of the plug or the spring! I’ve seen people apply it to the boot like you said (and like the coil came already), but the product specifically says to apply it to the ceramic part of the plug and doesn’t mention the boot. And thanks for being a subscriber 🍻

I like to double up on the u-joint sockets wrapped with a strip of duct tape to keep them and the socket together. That way I can have effectively infinite bendability to get the plugs out. That method allowed me to easily get around a spec header system on a buddy's car. It also means you do not have to take the wheel off. I find it way easier. I have tried it a several ways.

This seemed like the time to get a cheap HF scope and at least inspect the bores above the pistons. (Turn the engine with all plugs removed.)

Since it's important to keep dialectric grease off of the spark plug terminal, putting grease on the plug's insulator may be problematic. After the plug is installed, and pulling out the socket, the socket's rubber grommet may smear the grease off the insulator and onto the terminal.
