Just curious if anyone has input on this and if its a good idea or not?? I used to use it but it seems like there is a bunch of black powder residue left inside the plug boot and on the plug after awhile. Should I just leave them dry??
anybody use dielectric grease on spark plugs??

Yup, I do. Just have to clean the caps every now and again then re-apply.
Great stuff, I try to use it on all me electrical connections. Better connections and keeps moisture out.
Di-electric grease is Non-Conductive, therefore an Insulator!
As the title states; Di-electric grease is Non-Conductive, therefore an Insulator! It should only be used on the porcelain to boot portion. To help limit electrical leakage and carbon arcing. FWIW
DO NOT use on the conductive metal to metal portion!

^^^ This is good information, that I didn't know for years. If you research dielectric grease you will quickly learn that it is non-conductive and too much can actually cause problems.

Been using this stuff for years. Electrical Insulating compound, check out the tech sheet on their website. Even mentions spark plug connections. Never ever an issue. Go pull a connector off a newer auto headlamp and what's all over the pins? Yup, dielectric grease. Works good.
