Thats cool! I didn't think anyone ever cleaned plugs anymore! Just throw away and replace. I haven't seen a spark plug cleaning machine since the 70's, and even then it looked like 60's model.

Have you asked your local Snap On or Mac Tools rep. about it?

Nope, just came across the cleaners by accident and since I hardly put miles on during the summer, I'd like to have clean plugs each spring. Thought it would be better than doing it by hand.

This one uses a compressor http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/ProductDisplay/s-10101/p-581/c-10101

I mentioned the tool reps because other automotive tool suppliers I know of don't know anything about them, and refered me to them.

The old machine I saw way back when was made by Champion and plugged into 115 volt ac outlet.

If you don't thoroughly clean the plugs before reinstalling the "cleaning grit" this machine uses will score the rings and bores. You're safer just buying new plugs.

I have a Black & Decker cleaner like that somewhere. Bought it when I owned a Vega. Had to clean the plugs every 75 miles or so. I'll see if I can find it.
