Default RE: spark plug compression leak

No sealers are recommended on spark plug threads as it can inhibit heat transfer from the plug into the head with it's cooling fins.

If possible, machine a taper in the head to match the taper on the sealing surface of the glow plug adapter. The taper wouldn't have to be very deep.
