Plugs looking awful white when I ran sled to get it ready for trip. How much oil will they consume with a tank of gas? I added some klotz to gas so I wouldnt burn it up but it did use some of the oil after running a tank out. Just not sure if its using enough. Can anyone here give me a rough guess.

Are the plugs brand new? They tend to be pretty hard to read when they are brand new as there is hardly any discoloration on them until the first hundred miles or so rolls over, otherwise you may be too lean.

Yes that is true... if you want to be certain (although it a little bit of work) take your cylinder head off and look at the piston wash... If you didn't change anything but the plugs you should be fine, but if you're worried about it you might aswell pull the head and look at those pistons just to be sure. never did say if your plugs are brand new or not.

Plugs were new and I haven't changed anything from the last time I ran it. With the extra oil in the tank plugs are now golden brown across all three. I mixed the Klotz 32:1. Whats normal oil usage with a tank of gas? I'm not going to run it without the klotz until Im sure its using the correct amount of oil ((but it is using because I marked it)).
