OK, I just gotta ask, I've seen this a coupla times before, but I really don't understand the reall meaning??
I've done this on my '05 FLHTCI after I did the 95" w/ cams & reworked heads, etc, to be sure I was gettin' oil to the rockers before puttin' them on....had the plugs out of the engine & wires, & cranked it over long enuff to see oil....NEVER had a problem....so what gives????
can play hell with computers and electronic ignitions.

I just replace them when they go rusty, not a thing wrong with the plugs but I can't stand seeing the rust.
Noticed the same thing on my 2009 Ultra. 30K+ miles so I just changed them. OEM plugs are $5.......easy fix. Yes I used anti-seize and started them by hand and torqued to spec. lol Now I just have to get out and use them............finally supposed to thaw out here in Mich this week.
After you wash and dry, get on it and ride. The hot motor will evaporate the left over moisture. I am not a advocate of changing plugs just for the heck of it. My 2000 still has same plugs and they look and run great. Your mileage may vary.
