i'm not big on champs either.. most around here use autolites...
still.. as long as the insulator is not cracked and she's not shrted.. i get good results on all brands except platniums.. in using an abrasive cleaner they are less than 10$ at harbor freight and use black beauty cleaner media,
I have not bought a plug in a few years.. I celan mine. after a few blasts of cleaner.. brush them and then use some brake clener spray to clean the electrocde and insultator area perfectly.. get al the abrasive and dust out.. bad for the engine1
do not use a wire brush.. it leaves metalic streaks and particles onthe ceramic insulator near the electrode.
file the center conductor and bent tab sothey have square edges. spark jumps easier from that than a rounded edge. remove andy flakes or burs from squaring the center pin. even file the side of the tab to get that flat edge.,
lastly.. rememebr to cleann the threads up and save the cursh washer.. repalce if you have extra.. otherwise reuse.. do get all the debris out of the threads. add a micro coating ov something like nickle neverseige to the threads.. helps on removal. pack back in theor oem boxes ont he shelf in a ziplock to keep dust out for we=hen you need them.
I have a whol;e rack of cleaned plugs waiting to swap in like that.
saves big $$ over the years seeings as the price of plugs is going up

Dad bought the 202 new in 1962, and I recall quite clearly going to the dealer with him to sign for it.
