1cleangsx replied to the thread 2G No compression on 1&4 after rebuild.When I had 0 compression on the #1 cylinder on my new motor it was 2 bent intake valves from improper block/head assembly:ohdamn:

The heat range of the plug is a measure of how much heat the plug retains between firing events. So a hotter plug holds more heat between combustion cycles and a colder plug, less. If the plug is staying colder on average, then the ground strap...

Looks a little soft on timing. Best way is to fire motor, do a pull, usually 3rd to redline, shut the car off and pull and read them right there.

1cleangsx replied to the thread General What do these plugs tell you..I tried Vegas to load the log but couldn’t figure it out on the laptop lol, it’s been a while but I’ll keep trying, I’d love the feed back:thumb:

1cleangsx replied to the thread General What do these plugs tell you..I’ve also heard this but don’t understand, might also explain the line on my ground strap indicating “too little” timing:coy:

1cleangsx reacted to habitatguy187's post in the thread General What do these plugs tell you. with Like.Same as retarding timing.... Will you elaborate on that please?

1cleangsx replied to the thread General What do these plugs tell you..I’ll try and post one tonightSo with the line being above the bend the timing is on the high side?

1cleangsx replied to the thread General What do these plugs tell you..So far .023 works for 26 psi:DNow that I think about it Marty I think I’m having an ignition issue and I wonder if it’s the plug gap or my coil pack, but sometimes at low rpm from a stop there’s like a flutter as I’m releasing the clutch, I...

1cleangsx replied to the thread General What do these plugs tell you..Thanks guys! So I guess I’ll stick with these plugs then, I’ll keep pulling them from time to time to check them for fun:thumb:
