Old Spark plugs
 
2 Attachment(s)
These pictures mean anything to anyone? My car has had some issues with miss fire under boost. After installing a WBO2 and tuning the map in boost (was using stock FM2 map before) I have had less problems with the miss fire. It still seems to come up from time to time though. I think I was running insanely rich before. Right now I am still using the stock FM O2 targets which are probably still way to rich.

These are just some regular NGK Vpower, stock heat range, BKR6E, gapped at .03. I have wondered about moving to a colder plug, but am worried about them fouling. I spend a lot of time commuting and stuck in traffic.

I believe the best way to use your plugs as a gauge of what is going on is to put new ones in, do a 10 minute run and cut the car off and coast to a stop. This will show you what they looked like while driving, not what they look like after sitting at idle in the driveway.
