how are my plugs?

i just took out my spark plugs today, below are pictures of it, what you guys think? it looks as if my engine is running pretty lean?

i used ngk platinum 9s on trailing, and 7s on leading. Plugs have approximately 10k miles on them. I'm using 4oz premix per tank.




wat u guys think?

looks fine to me, you should invest in the new style HKS plug, little more expensive, but WAY better responce

good question, i think they're actually cheaper.

here's a question: when should you go to a colder plug?

If you're planning on running more then 12psi then run al 9s. If not then stock should be fine.
