Might want to keep an eye out on your plugs folks if you are using Autolites. 4 of them recently have come apart at their housing causing compression loss. Easiest way to tell if your plugs are coming apart it to touch the top of each plug wire. You'll feel a definite pulse if there's compression escaping through the housing and insulator. You'll also be able to tell of there's a leak because brownish ring will have formed at the base of the insulator where it meets the housing.

Don't know if this is a QC issue or I'm installing them wrong but the set of Denso plugs I've been running as well haven't come apart on me nor do they have the tell tale ring on the ceramic insulator.
