Plug question

[vMaxed Out]

What do lean and rich plugs look like? I know you want them to be cardboard brown and if they are rich they are dark right? Thanks for the help

thanks. I'm trying to re-install the tempa flow in my sled and have to re-tune it. And I don't have a lot of knowledge about what to look for.

Go to the Tech section and go to the Engine catagory.Then there is a section that says spark plug information.Everything is explained good on there.Print it out and keep it in your files.

thanks for the help. If I run for a mile and stop to check the plugs is that mile to long? I'm afraid of wrecking my motor.

1/4 to a 1/2 worked for me.

do you mean that 1/4 to 1/2 was enough to tell or was enough to wreck your motor?

1/4 mile is good enough to stop and read plugs..
