I’ve heard this trick is also best used after pouring 1 gallon of water to your fuel tank. This will rehydrate your drivetrain, keeping your vehicle running for years to come.
a condom could have prevented this post
Would you love to have a breakfast with me ?
Looking for serious relationship 🥰
🤔There is no way to get a proper seal on that spark plug. Doing this will cause a compression leak. I don’t know who this person is, but don’t take their advice on anything‼️
forgot the Teflon tape
1963 is calling. they want their spark plug socket wrench back
Works best in a slant 6 V8
some people just need to be gone from this earth
The frightening part of this video is the number of people who are actually stupid enough to try this.
that boy has two brain cells, and they both fighting for 3rd place
you forgot the red lock tight
Not as bad as his cousin who is doing something to that chicken in the background. 😳
it's a lot easier if you just put J&B weld on the thread, your spark plugs last forever. You'll get much better gas mileage. And save a butt load on plug replacement.
This person mother should have kept it closed off
The dumbest advice ever.
First, you have to replace the muffler bearings for it to work properly
don't forget about the turn signal fluid.
This guy needs a car horn under his driver's seat thats been wired into his reverse light circuit. For racing in reverse.
you mean when you don't have the correct spark plug!
😂 don't try this at home folks
NO
You want date outside Or date inside?
O come on ppl, he literally just training the spark to jump further and be stronger! The spring will come off when he will get a feeling that she is ready to be a STARk-pluggernator🥰 🐓🍼🤡After that spring will be training next spark-plug in line!🤯😳😅
No. That’s stupid
No really this works good I got a 15hp gain but you have to put glass marbles in the hole first so it gets cherry red and you will have constant spark. It’s also called direct injection
There's a little better thing called indexing washers if you want to space it slightly further out that will actually seal and do the job much better 🤔🤔🤔
cross thread that hole
😂yes it add more horsepower
Is that spark plug socket for a model A Ford Henry Ford built himself? Dayum get this fella some tools 😆😆😆
😳aaahI don't think so🤨
derpidy derp derp
yep just like Blinker Fluid
DO NOT DO THIS! you may find out why when the plug comes loose and takes threads with it!
This looks like a good way to cross thread that spark plug.
nice pics
Your "socket" says it all.
water check valve as well mate's 🤔
lmao 🤣 🤣 u guys probably have some ppl doing this stuff junk yard gonna love u.
looks like a spacer who said to put a spacer there you need the spark to burn your fuel i bet you do that to all of them it wont start a nickle
All you’re doing is moving the spark plug gap farther away from where it needs to be to ignite the air fuel mixture.
I'm not a mechanic, but I have a bad feeling about this....... And Also, feel like I need to grab some popcorn.
people gonna mess up a lot of engines
now it will blow out like my f150 did 3x
Twinkie crumbs in the piston chamber
these comments can't be serious, I done this and I'm getting more horsepower, and using less gas, in my electric bicycle
