Mine would collect a lot of dirt on the back plugs. Number 8 was the worst.


I always blew them out, sometimes had to loosen it up with a screwdriver.


Either way my new EQ heads dont have them

I've got no problem at all reaching any of the plugs with the Gibson headers and factory heat shields in place.
