Re: [DML] spark plug update

[Eric Itzel <eric@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just outta curiousity, how old are those plugs? Could they be 20 years old?
I guess that could make a difference in their condition, couldn't it?

Also, you said you got 3 out of 6 plugs out- were the broken plugs common to
one side of the engine, or spread out?

Keep us posted!
