"By orienting the spark plug _away_ from the intake valve, the ground
electrode may help shield the center electrode from wetting. Probably
marginal, and not related to combustion efficiency per se, except in the sense
of blowing out the candle, but this may be beneficial, for instance, cold
starting an engine that suffers from puddling."

Maybe in theory this works. I doubt it would a difference unless you have a
magneto ignition system from the 1920s. As someone else stated, indexing isn't
worth the time unless you have valve clearance problems. For most of us, more
performance is gained by cleaning out the trunk.
