How bad it COULD have been - http://www.rockauto.com/Newsletter/index.html ... about 1/2 way down the page.

Hey ... maybe you can you a t-shirt.

Talk about luck! I bet the piece was stuck in between one of the valves and the seat temporarily. Short term your good, long term? Some kind of damage had to be done.

Yeah like she hold Idle way better at 800rpm she runs great all the way to 5000rpm. I cant believe how luck i was Like if u seen the pic on my profile u can see half the piece surrounding he electrode was missing but what u cant see is that the ceramic goes all the way in it was a HUGE piece I totally seen it fly out What the heck made it last in one piece ???? or am I crazy and It was a piece of dirt or something blow because the engine was running with out a sparkplug in it .... I thik it was the piece

You can email your story to RockAuto and, if they pick your story to publish, they send you a t-shirt. Your story is quite similar to this month's ... but with a better ending.
