While we are talking about PM to make your life easier in the future, I suggest that right now you pull your spark plugs and add a drop of antiseize on the threads and put them back in. I think you will be very happy (or your mechanic will be very happy) that you did this in a few years when it is time for new plugs.

If you ever do any exhaust system 'boltage', put high temp antiseize on all the bolts there also.

Antiseize is a wonderful thing. I'm YD, and I approve this message.
