Consumer Description

MY SPARK PLUG JUST POPPED OUT OF THE SOCKET WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND IT STRIPPED THE THREADS, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME. THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHT THAT THE PLUG WAS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY ON CYLINDER #2, THIS TIME IT HAPPENED ON CYLINDER #3. I'M AFRAID THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ENGINE FIRE DUE TO THE VEHICLE STILL SPRAYING THE GAS INTO THE CYLINDER AND THE SPARK PLUG WILL STILL FIRE IGNITING THE FUMES. *TR
