multiple tip plugs are not designed to have multiple sparks. that is not the point of them. yes, the spark will travel the path of least resistance to only one of the tips. it is the fact that the spark is more exposed to the air-fuel charge that is their unique advantage. thus you get a larger flame kernel which results in more of the air-fuel charge getting burned with each spark. the result is more power and better fuel efficiency.
