help, tell me how my plugs are
 
http://www.newbieforces.com/files/plugs.gif

about 40 miles of driving, and the electrode is white, and i forget what that means, so im asking. Ive put 3 sets in in 3 days, 2 sets of stock ngkrs and one set from 00 b16 Si. Nothing helped, car hesitates and runs like total ass, after so many miles, it runs on only a couple cylinders.

any clues?

thanks pat

Running 93 with ocatane booster. Car idles ok, when im cruising it bucks and go crazy, if i jump on it, car bogs and is horrible. If i just roll on the gas, it pulls hard to about 6500 rpms then hesitates and bucks again.

Im only running 4lbs so i kno that im getting enough fuel from the 450s maybe someone can check out my TE map for me.

It sounds a hell of a lot more like something is wierd in the TE...I'd check your maps & settings to make sure something isn't way off. If this is the first time you have used it, check your soldering too. Espesscially if you have a CEL at all.

plugs look fine, a lil rich (cuz of the 450's) , but it seems to me your problem lies somewhere else in the ignition system

mky friends did the same thing for a while and it ended up being the plugs werent gapped right. he also replaced the rotor, distributer cap and ignition wires and now it runs like a champ.
