Yes, the cleaning does help, but it also puts much higher voltage through the plugs, which is why the NGK plugs are always recommended. The normal voltage through a DI cassette is also higher than other vehicles' ignition systems, and I've been told by dealers that regular plug changes always help. Works for me. YMMV. -- Regards, Danny http://www.gaggia-espresso.com (a purely hobby site) http://www.dannyscoffee.com (UK advert for my mobile espresso service) swap Z for above characters in email address to reply
