Yes I have change the fuel filter. I am coming to the conclusion that it is the oil that it's making me go thru spark plugs, specially now that am going thru more then before!

Thanks for the feed back!!!;-)

lol i dont think anyone on the rx7 club thinks replacing sparkplugs in a year is weird,

so this is probably the worst place to ask... as most rx7 owners go through tons of plugs haha....

oil can foul plugs, what do the plugs look like?

Hey guys, I need some advice on how to clean spark plugs, or what I should use to clean them with. In the past I have alway got new one. This is for my daily driver which is my Hyundai scoupe Turbo that is burning oil with 122,000 miles. I drive about one mile down the street.

Here is the why I want to clean them. Every year I need to change them, as the get very oil like and I have a hard time starting. Five mouth ago a change them and last month I had to change again, two week later It started to do it again, I figurer out the it was spark plug #2. I clean it and the car is running fine now. I clean it with a wire brush and wd40. So I just want to clean then the right way if I have to do it again.

So long story short I foul my spark plug on my Hyundai scoupe turbo 93 (daily driver) two days in a roll. So I order the coil and the coolant temp sensor and temperature sending unit, after I found this:

Coolant temperature sensors provide coolant temperature data to the engine management system
When not replaced, vehicle could experience pinging, excessive hydrocarbons in oil resulting in premature engine bearing wear, spark plug fouling, catalytic converter failure, poor fuel economy and/or CEL/MIL illumination.

Car is running like new, Fyi
