How does anti-seize on a spark plug hurt the O2 sensor?

Nice theory, but i've seen M96 plugs seized. So the theory is contradicted by clinical facts.

The plugs can be seized if the plugs are left in too long. Porsche generally has a plug change...

After hand tightening, a half turn or so might be a bit much. My experience is more like 1/4 turn.
Laz - Thursday, 13 October, 2011, at 10:39:11 pm

snug then 1/3 turn will compress the washer and work fine NM
old timer - Friday, 14 October, 2011, at 10:29:06 am

With everything clean and unworn, 1/3 sounds about right and likely the maximum necessary. NM

And a slight loss of compression*. You might hear a "phht-phht" sound if it's leaking.
