RL,

So what your saying is you position them between 10 & 2 O'Clock.

If I understand that correctly, in your circumstance, it really does not matter if they are pointed to the intake of exhaust valves??
Or is it your just glad to have gotten them into a position that they won't hit because of the hassle of installing & removing washers.

Kinda like a comfort zone......
Just wondering...
Ya I'm not really trying to get them at the valve as much as I'm trying to get the electrode up and away from the piston mine is very close if they are pointed down they will hit i have tried to get them angled toward the valve and i have just took a lot longer and was no advantage for me after replacing the plugs the last few times i just did them at 10 and 2 and it didn't change a thing ran the same and was a lot faster for me to do it that way.
