Anyone use those little sand blasting spark plug cleaners?
 

Anyone, what's a good one?

harbor freight one works fine. there are always a bunch on ebay.

P.S. your new sig sucks balls :)

I saw the little green one at Harbor Freight, I'll go buy that one if it's a good one:)

my sig is busted

I've got one of the Harbor Freight ones. Works quite well - blows all the crap off the plugs. I've never had known-fouled plugs (like from bad flooding) and tried to clean them in the doodad. But, I have run plugs that I've cleaned, and they work just fine.

I think it's well worth it - much cheaper than new plugs! :) Very easy to use, takes only a few seconds to clean a plug.

I have the harbor freight one and it works great. Now, only if i can find replacement washers for the plugs.

You cheap bastard... you want to drive around with C16 at $10/g but you don't want to pay $30 a peice for new plugs...? Come on now.. haha.

Is that Zengief from street fighter flying around in the sig? lol - Where the fuck do you find this shit?

I don't care who you are, $30 a plug is expensive. Yep, Zengief......... I've been instructed to take it down. I'll do that later today :rlaugh:

It has been suggested the blasting material damages the plug's ceramic insulator.

^^^ What he said, but more importantly...... Make sure you inspect the plugs after blasting them CAREFULLY. Bits of blasting media can get logged or stick in between the insulator and the plug body. When it heats up they release, and guess were they go? You don't want these highly abbrasive bits getting into your engine. SO if you use one of these plug blasters, blow it out really good with compressed air then follow up with a solvent before installing them in your engine.

I've used one and it works well to buy you a little time. But it shouldn't be used as a fix.
