I used to just use a little engine oil on my spark plugs, this is with my
air-cooled 1600dp in a previous NVC type2. Technique was straight out of the
Muir book.


So, when I get to this part with the Vanagon... you recommend aluminum or
copper anti-seize on the spark plug threads, preferably copper: am I reading
this correctly?
