    2003 225 H.O. Evinrude - Spark Plug 'Alignment' Needed ?

    The guy i bought this boat/engine from had black sharpy marker lines on his plug stems. He then told me to ensure that when i replace or reenter existing plugs that the sharpy lines are aligned with 'some' visual part of the outside of the casing.

    Does anyone know what the trick is ? He told me that if i don't screw the plugs in such that they align just right that the performance goes way down.

    Thanks
