If a relay sticks on and the plugs never get turned off, they can melt themselves and the tips can get swollen... and then you may have trouble getting them out. Or even worse, a tip could come free and drop into the combustion chamber and do major damage. If the relay sticks, unhook the power to it right away, otherwise you may end up causing lots of other trouble for the motor.
A light on the dash to monitor if the plugs are glowing or not is a great idea to avoid this problem.

well, even if the relay is unplugged 'entirely' the light stays on... it actually comes on immediately after I put my key into the ignition... O_o? forget the OEM crap... im making a control panel for everything at the moment, as well as doing a stage 1 weight reduction... no ac or sound deadening.
thanks again for everyone's help
