What your plugs shouldnt look like.

Bought it running very rough. Wouldnt stay on and blows a good amount of smoke. Previous owner said he rarely used Premium.

Pulled the plugs about 5 mins ago. 3 gapped at 40 and 1 at 35.

Thats nasty! did you swap em? Hows it run? Sounds like this could have been a great buy if you got a deal on it!

Going to put some platinums in gapped at 28 in a few. (Gotta eat).

Car was $850...he was young and had no idea what he was doing. There's some other stuff like it needs paint, some interior panels put back on and some side skirts. But hell for $850 I'll have a hell of a time with this 2g til I blow apart the 7bolt and then swap that out.

I'll let you know how it runs when I get the plugs in. Threw no codes when I first looked at it and had it running. Threw some ugly smoke but hell, look at the plugs.

DSM's doesn't like platinums too well - just the good ol NGK-BPR6ES does the trick.

I'm ashamed...I knew that but wasnt even thinking about it when I bought them.

I bought my car for 600 and did 300 in the cylinder head and it runs great. Everything Else I did to it was because I was bored . Some times we get lucky and find cheap rides.
