Spark Plug Condition

Normal Plug
The normal insulator tip is gray, tan or light brown. There will be few
combustion deposits. The electrodes are not burned or eroded. This indi-
cates the proper type and heat range for the engine and the service.
Tip: The tip should not be white. A white insulator tip indicates overheating,
caused by use of an improper spark plug or incorrect throttle body adjust-
ments.
Wet Fouled Plug
The wet fouled insulator tip is black. A damp oil film covers the firing
end. There may be a carbon layer over the entire nose. Generally, the
electrodes are not worn. Fouling may be caused by excessive oil or by
frequent short trips, especially in cold weather.
