Plugs and Engine Analysis
 
Well I pulled my engine and stripped it down, here are the plugs. What do you think happened?

Nothing unusual - but really hard to tell by your pics. It looks a little rich, but that's not really bad for an FD. Was it running good before you pulled the engine? (Shit, this reminds me of Histology in pre-med.......OK class, what is this?) I personally like to see them a little more brown looking - like coffee with creamer. If you can shoot the pics with the TIPS in focus it would be helpful. I really don't like the shiney stuff - looks metallic:eek:

More info??? Did the motor blow or what? Looks to me like you were either running really rich or had major carbon buildup that might have flaked off causing a seal to go. It's hard to say from the info you gave.
