Dirty Plugs

I have just bought my first RX7 93 and its a beauty.. the only problem is that every couple of weeks the plugs seem to get real dirty and it has trouble starting. I would be most grateful if anyone can shed any light...

when you first start the car, does a lot of white steam come out the exhaust? If so then it sound like your water seal has gone.. when you take the plugs out,are they wet? i have sent you a private message

Mods to your car??

These cars run rich on the stock ECU, so plugs fouling regularly is normal. I dont know about every couple of weeks though if your car is stock.
