more or less--but also
Just like the smaller diameter of the iridium or platinum eletrodes let the spark jump the gap easier the smaller width of the iridium or platinum chips on the laser plugs lets the spark jump the gap easier.

Having a motor with plugs that aren't SUPER easy to get to, I just decided that getting a better one was a good idea.
I took a couple out the other night, and they had a good color to them and weren't worn too badly, and they are currently NGK's.
But I, never one to leave well enough alone, am changing them anyway.
