<VV> Re: Thermisters (Now plug depth)

<snip> I have always wondered if there is  any issue with sparkplug thread 
depth when you use an under-the-plug  thermistor. Doc. <unsnip>
 
I've been reading and hearing about this carbon thing since the beginning  of 
time, but, you know I've never actually experienced it.  I wonder if  it's 
one of those myths that just develops a life of it's own.  
 
As far as the VDO thermocouple (it's not a thermister) is concerned, it  
substitutes for the washer and is about the same thickness so I don't think it's  
of any concern relative to plug depth. The hassle with the VDO thermocouple is 
 in keeping it from rotating as you install the plug. (have to trap it with a 
 skinny screwdriver) and getting the tiny leads up through the shroud (cut   
a groove next to the boot or cut a groove in the boot).  They work, but  they 
are a hassle.
