brown spark plug tips?
 

i know you want them slightly brown, but mine are poop brown. and i dont have any poop in my engine.

its a y7/y8, 14b w/ uberdata basemap; probably running a little rich. it's getting tuned very soon.

anyways, there was also a little oil on the #1 spark plug. the car doesn't 'feel' as quick as it should be. are my rings bad? any other suggestions?

forgot to mention, car smokes normally only when 'getting on it'. no excessive smoke at all.

Don't be gay.

Them being "poop" brown I assume you mean darker. This could simply be caused by your rich fuel map. And yes, that could also be causing your car to feel slower than it should. Tune that ----.

In regards to the oil on your plug, that could be your headgasket. This would also cause your lack of power. Do the standard tests (compression, leak-down, check the color of your oil and coolant) and see what's up.

thanks yo

to update this, just did a compression test and numbers were surprisingly good.. 195-205 across the board.

coolant color doesn't look any different.

Do you use octane booster? That will make them brown/red

Mine tuned an odd shade of tan. ;D

A new tank of gas and new plugs and everything went back to black.
