And not a word of warning from NGK about resistance, only chance of overtightening. Kind of laughable to think anti-seize, which is mostly fine-ground nickel or copper particles in a non-oxidizing carrier grease, would stop a plug from grounding and even the least bit inhibit spark from happening, given the voltage involved.
So NGK sez, on reinstall of used plated plugs into aluminum head, and any black-finish plugs, new or used, a little anti-seize ain't a bad idea. Will make a note to file away in back of my head.
