I'm changing the spark plugs on my 2012 Fusion.
2.5L 4 cylinder engine. The plugs I'm pulling out have 87k miles on them. Should I use anti seize on the new plugs or not? (Motorcraft SP530 iridium)

So you are threading steel plugs into Alum heads for sure I would use anti seize , lube between dissimilar metals is always a good idea

As Neil said. AND, don't use the aluminum product, use the copper one, otherwise you're putting aluminum on steel anyways and they're not the best friends.  :cheers:
