12a bridgeport burning plugs
i have a S2 rx7 with a 12a bridgeport running a standard carbie and extractors and exhaust.
it has an 85 model 12a with electronic distributor.
i recently rebuilt the carbie and about 1 month later it blew all the white stuff in the middle of the plug somewhere in the rotar it was hole number 3.
i put a brand new plug in it and now 2 weeks later i pulled it out and it was black and cruddy again it was only hole 3.
when it blows the plug it won't idle and runs like a bucket of **** please help me!

Black and cruddy you say?
Sounds like its getting fouled with oil. Check your OMP.
I'm not sure if plugs in a rotary 'read' the same way plugs in a boinger do, but black carbon deposits usually mean an oil issue.
