I'm in the process of rebuilding my friends 911 motor and got to the point of installing the sprak plugs and for some reason I actually glanced at the rebuilding books section on installing spark plugs, probably for the gap setting, and I found this.

"Porsche doesn't recommend the use of anti-seize compund, as detailed in Porsche Techinal Bulletin 9102, Group 2, identifier 2870. The bulletin applies retroactively to all Porsche models and the theory is that the anti-seize tends to act as an electrical insulator between the plug and the cylinder head".

This goes against everything I have always done. Does everyone else not use anti-seize on there spark plugs or?

That's what I was thinking, but it sounds like Porsche doesn't recommend any anti-seieze. Guess I'll have to try and find that tech bulletin for the actual text of it.

that's odd, because in the workshop manual it clearly specifies "grease thread lightly with Molykote paste HTP (white)" - this is a lubricant
