A 914 that has been converted to a new single carb is carbon fouling a practically new set of Bosch Platimum spark plugs in just a few weeks. A low pressure facet style fuel pump is installed. The fuel/mixture screw is leaned out with no luck. What have you found is the best brand and heat range spark plugs for a carburated 914. Thanks

Do you have a pressure gauge to see how much fuel pressure the pump is actually putting out. That carb probably only likes 3 - 4 lbs. I second the swap to dual carbs, but if you're stuck with what you have then NGK B6S plugs should work.
Check the pressure from the pump, if it's too much, get a regulator. |
