vinegar and two stroke plugs

Can't understand how I missed this, in 1958 when I started riding, but soaking a fouled spark plug, from a two stroke engine, overnight in white vinegar then blowing dry will make it reusable! Did everybody except me know this?

Didn't know that.  I know vinegar will unseize an engine.  Just pour it in the cylinders and wait two hours.  Then give the pistons a sharp smack and it'll move.  It still needs to be rebuilt but it makes tear down way easier.

 When I first started snowmobiling The plugs would foul real quick,We would use vinegar to clean the plugs,Thats when I first heard of Klotz synthetic,The plugs wouldn't foul with that oil,I've been using Klotz since 1970.
