look up spark plug wikipedia.

more surface area of spark equals more gas burnt efficiently equals more power/torque

more surface area of spark equals wider spark gap which requires higher voltage to make a spark across the gap

How do you check an engine for spark?

Remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug. Use some heavy gloves or a set of insulated pliers to hold the spark plug wire about 1/4-inch from the engine block (ground) and crank the engine - you should see a spark jump from the wire to the engine ground. For a better check, use another spark plug and put it on the spark plug wire and use it as a "jumper" from the wire to the engine ground.

How do you change the spark plugs in a 1987 Chevy Celebrity?

To change the spark plugs in a Chevy Celebrity: 1. Give the spark plug boot a twist to free it up from the spark plug, then pull on the boot to remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug. 2. Use a 5/8" spark plug socket with an extension and ratchet or breaker bar to loosen then remove the spark plug. 3. Set the gap on the new plug to .045" then screw it back into the spark plug hole in the head. Tighten the spark plug and replace the spark plug wire. I change the spark plugs one at a time to keep from getting the spark plug wires on the wrong spark plug.

How do you remove a spark plug nut that is broken in the cylinder. note the actual spark plug itself is out just not the nut and thread around it and you cannot get a spark plug socket on it?

There is a special easy out for this. If it cant be used or the remains of the plug still wont come out then the head will have to be removed and the spark plug removed from the inside. A machinist may be better suited to do this if you end up having to take your engine apart.
