Plugs Pulled... what are they saying
Thursday, August 10, 2006 6:11 PM
ok well I pulled my spark plugs today...... I drove to napa and picked them up and waited about a hour to let the engine cool down.

these were gapped at .050 and I was having problems since i installed my green tops in. the motor ran choppy so the new plugs i put in I gaped at .035 and it idles fine now.

but heres a couple pics of the plugs I pulled



the one of the far left is the cylinder closest to the timing chain housing.... the rest are right in order as i pulled them going left to right



same thing again with this pic...

I dont think im running lean anymore..... I was having problems with the stock injectors so thats why i put my green tops in. I need to get a wideband to see whats up with my a/f ratios but everyone that i talk to with good knowledge things im running rich now. either way I need a wideband to tell me whats up. I was also thinking when i put my HO intake on I didnt have a AIT sensor in the intake for a while and now that i do it might of messed with the car some how.

I'll drive a round a lil bit and check the plugs in a couple days to see if they change at all

I was going to see it looked a tad but lean! That's all I could pull from it but It's not a crazy lean like when some people have it caked on.

yea the electrode and prong are white but the outside of the plug where the ground is black... I think my motor made a transistion from lean to pig rich with the injectors
