I've just read what to do....

Aparrently the engine has to be at operating temperature too.... how in the hell do you do that.... consider how long it takes to remove all the plugs with zero access, and how may burns I'm gunna pick up off the exhaust manifold....

In my humble opinion it isn't doable whilst the engine is hot

I agree.... I was only going to do it as it's recommended to check while changing the plugs as part of a tune-up, but I don't think it's going to happen....
