Vent: my old lead told me to stop using anti-seize on spark plugs, and I listened for 2 annuals
He claimed it throws off the torque spec and cracks the ceramic, but pulling four plugs last week on a Lycoming O-360 in Tulsa, every one of them fought me the whole way out. Anyone else's shop split on this, or is it just my old lead?

Buddy of mine went through the same thing on his 172, plugs came out dry and galled so bad he had to helicoil two cylinders. He puts a dab on the threads now and his A&P stopped arguing about it.
