Devildub_06 0 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 The "cooler" plugs transfer heat away from the firing tip faster preventing overheating (as you well know this causes the plug to break down and cause misfire). The same can be said in vice versa about "hotter" plugs which transfer heat away from the firing tip more slowly (these are used on cooler running engines where extra heat is needed in the plug to prevent coking up).
