Ed, you might try burning the lead out with an OA torch. Maybe try a
very lean flame. Keep the center cone of the flame off the metal
casing, and don't to let it get too hot. The platinum probably won't
even feel the heat. It should work to burn off carbon, too. Knew an
old guy who used to bake his plugs if they ever got flooded.
Thanks for the suggestion, Ernest.
Don't have a tourch at the moment, but could be good enough excuse to get
one - think of the money I'll save by reusing plugs {:>)
