Im using a friends map with damn near the same mods and my car runs for about 2 days and then the plugs are fowled out. I try to clean them, sometimes it starts, but that only happened a few times. It seems like it running too rich at start up and I know the tune isn't 100% but why cant you clean spark plugs. One time I pulled the plugs( after 1 day and then no start) and they were alittle gas soaked and alittle blackend, but not real bad. I cleaned them off and they came completely cleaned. I mean these things looked brand new. These were brand new 1 day earlier to this. Put them back in and car wont start. Bought new plugs put them in and started right up. Can someone comfirm that you can fowl out plugs that easily?!!!! I can't afford to buy new plugs every other day!!!

 

These plugs do foul easily in the presence of raw gas or oil. Once fouled they rarely come back to life. It's just the way it is.

 

I always have a spare set just in case. For some reason these cars seem more susceptible to plug death.

 

Friend of mine fouled his plugs nearly every 1500 miles

 

^That's about where I've been... I'm hoping a fresh tune will take care of it. I am thinking it is my O2 sensor because at one point the wire pulled out of the harness and my ecu went into a closed loop. And still with a quick tune on my PFC it still fouls. But, I think that is from the car sitting for long periods of time and possibly a bad O2 sensor. Parked is when my plugs seem to foul the most. And cleaning them helps temporarily for me, but it's ALWAYS short term cuz they fould a couple weeks later. But, that's just my car.

 

same.. mine are lasting 1.5k-2k.... longest i've gone is around 3k w/o fouling. cleaning doesn't last long at all and runs poorly.

guess my 02 may be bad too.

 

i change mine every three months... i would do it every other oil change but im runnin the 10.5's all round... pretty expensive plugs
