Re: spark plug condition
Water...that makes everything VERY clean...
Before pulling plugs mark which way up they sit in the thread.
Black on the bottom side indicates worn rings, Black on the top side indicates worh valve guides....
Black all over indicates a rich burn.. be it carb not sorted, PVC valve incorrect and or dirty
Too cold heat range... over advanced timing
Excessive white.. also check with magnifying glass for any tiny round metal beads...
mixture too lean, which could be scavanging from headers and/ or too much duration/ overlap in the cam, vaccuum leak or carb...heat range too hot
Also it is not uncommon on carbed V8 and V12 engines because of the longer runners to the end cnrs that these tend to run a little blacker... which it is normal to drop in a slightly hotter plug
As to tuning/ dialling in by spark plug/ tail pipe deposits .. on modern unleaded fuels, and espec with methanol added, is no longer a reliable option...
My Spelling is not incorrect...it is creative
