Do these look OK?
I haven't been reading spark-plugs since my dirt bike racing days. On my bike, those would have indicated a slight lean condition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) What about a 993 3.6L motor? Still too lean? Or OK? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Andy Attached image(s) |

need closer shots of the insulator and the the tip of the electrode to tell you anything that would be of any worth. and pulling plugs out of a street car and trying to read rich or lean when it has idled is worth less for any judgement on full throttle mixture.
closer shots will show if there is any deposits on the insulator from detonation, and if the electrode is erroding from over heating from lean conditions. |
